Bruck an der Mur (Austria, near Graz).
Transfer calls came Thurs night and both Sister Schulthess and I will be leaving München. It was quite a surprise (and very rare) for both companions to be transferred. Their replacing us with Sisters who will be serving in the main office. They won't be in our apt but our positions\wards. Every six weeks are transfers so watch out when mailing. If it's close to the sixth week, safest thing is to send it to the office. I'd say to keep the ward bulletin up to date and maybe put the mission office address on like the 5th week of a transfer just in case someone writes to me.
It was funny when we told people because we never get appointments with members (besides old ladies) and when the news leaked out (from the Assistants and the Secretaries) everyone began to invite us over for our final Abendessen. The next three days are packed. We even have to make appointments for the new sisters coming in.
Comfort was baptized yesterday and it was PHENOMENAL!!! I finished the dresses Sat night (could only work on them during food breaks\Pday) and the day couldn't have been better. Sister Schulthess and I had to do the music and speak so it was packed, but absolutely wonderful. About 7 of Comfort's friends came and were 'so impressed and touched' by the service (they came to church AND the baptism) that we were able to make appointments with every one of them (between us and the Elders).
Check out the Ensign from Jan 2001. There's a little article\blurb about the Book of Mormon finding someone. That article is about a man from Nigeria who lives in the international ward here. Also, while preparing a talk for Comfort's baptism, I came across an article that I used that had a blurb by Sis Loski (Sept 2008 Ensign, pg 22).
We went to the JAE (YSA) dinner the other day and come to find out one of them served in the Düsseldorf stake and even in Osnabrück. Turns out, the branch is now a ward and there's a branch in Bad Bentheim. Also, there are MANY ACTIVE MEMBERS IN NORDHORN. That's amazing!!! It blew me away when I found that out.
That's so random about Keri's parents meeting up with Tay. As we'd always say....ONLY IN UTAH AND ONLY MORMONS. Sounds like he's doing great. Is he in Santiago itself or a little suburb. His email to me wasn't very clear.
Schöne Grüße aus München
