Bjarne and Anne Marit Strand. His grandmother and my grandfather on my mothers side were brother and sister. He is a few years younger than us, lives in a small town about 7 km. from us. They are very nice and remember many of our reletives who have visited them and who they have visited. We hope to visit with them many more times while here.
Elbe Blank, Ingebjørg Warvik and Kari Steinsvik at a Relief Society activity night. It was held in our apartment. The sisters learned how to knit house slippers for cold winter nights.
The four elders who are currently serving in Stavanger, the fourth largest city in Norway and the oil capital of Norway. L - R: Benjamin Kerr from Scotland, Phillip Olsson from Sweden, Andrew Phillips from Sandy, Utah, and Troy Tessum from Lindon, Utah. They are great missionaries and wonderful to work with. This picture was taken when we went to Stavanger to see general conference live via satalite. This was a wonderful experience in and of itself.
Laila Pettersen and Karl Petter Pettersen making pizza for the missionaries at zone conference. They live in the Stavanger area. She was a young girl of nine or ten when I was on my mission in Norway as a young man. She lived in Bergen with her parents and the whole family had been baptized about three or four months before I came to Bergen. They lived in the area I was assigned and we visited them often. They are a great couple and very active in the church.
The Whitesides. He works for an American oil company and has been in Norway for about five years. We stayed at their home during the weekend of general conference. He has been serving as first councelor in the branch presidency and she served as Missions Young Womens president and early morning seminar teacher. We just learned that he has been reasigned back to the United States, after living in Europe for almost ten years.
