Lots of work to do now

We had a wonderful Seniors conference in Bucharest.  Great classes and great food and lots of sites to see.  We had reports on Training and YSA and Public Affairs and Humanitarian Efforts.  Lots of work done and more to go.

The Elders even sang which was fantastic!!

We took at little trip around this lake in this boat behind us.  It felt like Heritage Park, it was fun.
We went to the Park where the first apostle came to dedicate the land for missionary work in 1990.  It has a very hard name, I can't pronounce it or spell it, but was so beautiful.
The sites in downtown Bucharest were amazing.  The design and architecture blows me away.

This is an angel carrying a fallen soldier to heaven.  It is enormous and sits out front the Marriott Hotel.
This an original bank from before Communism and during communism was the only National bank  and still operates as a bank today.
Original Orthodox Church.  People were worshipping and lighting candles for others.

This church is from the 1700's. I got a few pictures on the inside as well.
This is the ceiling.

This picture is in the National Theater building, it is amazing. Two of our missionaries perfrormed here and they have amazing voices.  
Elder Heninger was asked to serve in the Mission Presidency with Pres. Hill. We are very excited and look forward to learning so much from him. We also get to drive a car Yahooo!! It's great, a little blue Skoda.
We are excited about the gospel and hope you are too.  We love you and miss you all.

  1. I am the father of Elder Scott Lee (was formerly serving as the Bacau Branch President). Scott mentioned that you met he and Elder Rosenvall in Bacau this past Saturday and took them to lunch. Scott commented in his recent e-mail to us how much he appreciated your weekly call and advice that you've provided him with to be a better Branch President. My wife and I will be traveling to pick up Scott from his mission in August. Maybe we will meet you (as we plan to attend Church in Brasov on August 12th with Elder Lee. Thanks for your willingness to serve and to assist Elder Lee in his Branch President duties. Steve Lee
