Called To the Work

We know that efforts are still being made to get us into Germany.  We are hopeful that things will fall into place for us to go as soon as possible.  We received notice that our personal effects that were shipped to Germany in May have arrived and are being held in customs storage. We received this notification: "Unfortunately, German customs will not clear the shipment until an arrival date has been set and an appointment has been made at the local town hall to register. The shipment can remain in customs storage for up to 90 days.”  We are not exactly sure when the 90 days expires, but it is probably mid-October.  We certainly hope to be in Germany by then.  It would be a shame for the items to be shipped back to Utah and arrive here in December. On a brighter note....  Dan and I were invited to participate in the training of missionaries who have begun their virtual Mission Training Center experience.  The first week we were helping with two En...

An Update on the Mission from Dan

  March 2021 I realize that it has been a long time since I gave an update on the Frankfurt mission.    Many are asking about the Covid situation in Germany.    I will give you an update.   Germany went into lockdown 3 months ago, just before Christmas.  Everything closed down and only grocery stores and gas stations were open.  You were not supposed to go into work unless it was essential.  You were not supposed to travel more than 15 km unless it was business-related and considered urgent and necessary.  Restaurants, bars, most hotels, museums, tourist sites, etc., were all closed.  When we first arrived in September, we went to the Frankfurt downtown shopping district.  It is as wide as state street in Salt Lake City, but it is for pedestrians only and goes on for many blocks.  It is an enormous area.  In September, it was packed with thousands of individuals.  We w...
