Zone Conferences - Berlin South Zone, Berlin North Zone, Dresden Zone, and Leipzig Zone

 


Berlin North Zone

We have four zones in the Germany Berlin Mission.
This time, President and Sister Moyer had four separate 
zone conferences - one for each zone.  It was fun because
the missionaries had more opportunity to participate.  

Gary and I were able to help with the North Zone held
at the Berlin Stake Center.  Also, with the Dresden Zone held
at the Freiberg Chapel.

Apartment inspection in Annaberg
with Sister Taylor and Sister Harrison

We also delivered packages.  Sister Taylor
is VERY happy because a package her mom
mailed last October just arrived.  This package
had some mail and some cash that she needs in
order to get home.  This was a tender mercy.


Sister Harrison with her blooming Amaryllis


Saying goodbye to Sister Taylor and Sister Harrison 
after their apartment inspection.  They live in Annaberg 
which is one of the most beautiful spots in Germany.  It is
in the "mountains", hills and vales, old churches, quaint homes,
cobblestone roads, crisp air-just so pretty.


We stayed the night at a the Altstadt Hotel in
Freiberg after doing apartment inspections all day
on Wednesday.  Then, we supported Freiberg Zone
Conference on Thursday.  


The hotel was local and almost like
a bed and breakfast.  


Sister Stephens and Sister Waldal




We are getting more comfortable driving on
the autobahn...


Elder Ng, one of our Chemnitz Elders
made me some sourdough bread.  It is amazingly
delicious and it was so kind of him.  He is
from Singapore and a very good baker.  


Elder Stephens with our "hinter house" missionaries.
Elder Turman, Elder Lucas, Elder Hale, and Elder Baxter.

Their apartment is behind the office in the basement.


We have started shopping at a different
Kaufland grocery store.  This one has
a shopping cart mover to take us from the
basement parking garage into the store.



Awesome Elders


Super Sisters


Elder Moyer-I believe he is calling these Elders "knucklehead".

Having fun group shot...

Office Senior Missionary Work

  This is Gary in his office at the Berlin Mission Offices located at Zerbster Strasse 42 This is Louise's desk space.  I use my laptop more than the desktop but both are available. This is the lobby of the mission office.   This tree is located just outside of our balcony window.   These are some of the packages that families have mailed to their missionaries.  All packages are delivered to the Mission Office and then we distribute them at  Zone Conference. More packages Shopping Carts require a coin to unlock the baskets from each other. Once a customer returns the basket to the rack, the coin is returned. In this grocery store, there is a cart escalator from the  parking garage into the store.   Gary at Edeka - just finished shopping. There is no time to bag groceries at the checkout stand. So, we put them back in our basket and take them to  our car where we then load them into reusable bags.   This is Checkpoint Charl...

Charlottenburg Palace and Christmas Market

  Christmas Markets and Palaces are the best places to visit while in Germany in December.  We chose to visit the Charlottenburg Palace and Christmas Market this week.  It was so much fun!   The vaulted ceilings, chandeliers, marble floors and decorations are amazing. Cherubs Paintings and Vases Every room has a fireplace.  I'm sure the servants had to light them every single day in order to keep the palace warm for the royalty. A tribute to the prince... Gary on the grand staircase! Upper floor of the castle looking out toward the square and Christmas Market.
