Catching up…

March 16, 2017Søster Hill3 comments

We have loved serving with the Brostrom’s. They have served the missionaries and members in Norway wonderfully. For 22 months, we have shared Friday date nights together. We are excited to follow their future adventures as they return home this week! Ha det bra!

We had fun watching President Hill clean the car in the snow on Saturday. We took a picture of him so he snapped one of us 🙂

We welcomed Elder and Sister Robinson to Norway! We have known them for 40 years and are thrilled to have them serve with us in the mission office. 

The changing of the luggage. The Robinson’s stayed in the mission home for a few days and then moved into the senior apartment. The Brostrom’s stayed for a few days to train them…a smooth transition.

And a big welcome to Elder and Sister Miller who will serve in Tromsø. We are delighted to have them join us in Norway!

A visitor in the backyard!

Dinner honoring the Brostroms and the Olsens who have completed their missions and are homeward bound. We love them and will miss them.

The old and the new serving in Oslo. Robinsons, Hills #1. Hills #2, Olsens and Brostroms. With two Hill couples it sometimes gets confusing!

Ha det bra to the Olsens!!

One of our missionaries had sameday surgey at this beautiful hospital. It was built in 1917. We were impressed by it’s charm and the wonderful staff that took good care of him.

and…I loved the painted ceilings inside.

Saturday morning we traveled to Fredrikstad for the baptism of Viktoria. What a wonderful day! She is beautiful inside and out! We are so happy for her and grateful for wonderful sister missionaries that found her on the bus (when they got on the wrong bus). They have loved her and taught her well!

Outside the Primary room in Fredrikstad. I love the fabric artwork…especailly this simple message from the Book of Mormon. HOLD TO THE ROD!

Our talented Sister Geddes made this beautiful guest book and painted this watercolor for Viktoria. What a wonderful gift!

We loved having these amazing YSA’s for dinner on Sunday. They brought a special spirit to our home.  We are grateful for their efforts with our missionaries. Karoline, Mariell, Whitney and some wonderful Norwegian icecream!!

Waiting for spring….

Our time in Norway will be among our most precious memories. Of course, you had a lot to do with making our time there so memorable. Thanks so much for your caring and tireless concern for the welfare of all the missionaries in Norway, even us old ones.
