Another great week has flown by!
We had so much to do this week it was packed. We had 2 great lessons with a friend and another lady we met through Instagram. Elder Templeton said she had heard about the church and wanted to meet to learn more about It. We taught the first lesson and she loved it then we gave her a Book of Mormon she said, "so I just read it and pray to know if it's true right?" It was so dope! We did a lot of service and helped this dude paint his house, he gave me the wrong colored paint and I literally painted half the dudes house a different color it was so funny. He's like " man I can't seem to catch a break!! It's alright though no ones comes out here in the back of the house anyways." So he's got a half grey half off white house now and seems to be ok with it. This week was also the 17th of May which is Norway's 4 of July! It's literally the best day of the year here in Norway, people go crazy. We lucked out with solid weather too so no one cared about corona rules and just partied hard. There was parade, good food, music and people dressed up in their traditional Norwegian clothing it was so fun. All the Norwegians just start drinking at around 7 am and don't stop until midnight so the whole city was just loud and funny with people passed out and chicks hitting on us and us preaching to them on TV it was great. Definitely a day to remember for sure. We were just laughing the whole time looking at thousands of incoherent people just wandering the streets. But it definitely makes you realize why we have the word of Wisdom and the law of Chastity, its all fun and games till you wake up on a park bench with throw up on your chest, half naked at a random bus stop.
Haha hope you all have a good week!
"They asked us what our plans were for the day and then she said she recognized a slight accent when I spoke and proceeded to ask us where we were from and why we we're here in Norway." I told her and then she asked again what our plans were and I said, " you know, getting some ice cream, eating some hot dogs and sharing the happy message about Christ." A member in Drammen sent the picture to me from the interview, it was great!!
