Report from Germany

I wanted to send off a quick note, so you would all know that we arrived and are well here in Munich. We will be here in Munich until Friday, when we will get a car from the couple who have been serving in Ravensburg. That will be our assignment, the Ravensburg Branch. It sounds like a wonderful place. The branch president actually lives across Lake Constance (Bodensee) in Switzerland. Ravensburg is in the Zurich, Switzerland stake so we will regularly be travelling to Switzerland in our work.

We are well. It was a very tiring day yesterday. Neither of us slept much on the plane. We are going to be working on our visas and official papers for a couple of days. I am not sure how much Internet access we will be having until we get settled in, so this may be the best way to get the word out for a while.

We are having a wonderful time!

  2. A quick update...
    Ravensburg is not in the Zürich Stake, but rather the St. Gallen Stake. We will be working a lot with the Elders in the whole stake area which includes all four countries, Germany, Switzerland, Austria (Dornbirn Austria is in our missionary district., our DL is there), and Liechtenstein. They say that there are no members in Liechtenstein and that the church is not allowed to work there.

  4. Can you do some genealogy (oops, I mean family history) for me while you are there? That is where my great grandfather is from.
