May 2017

In the beginning of May President Kohler was interviewing and training here in the München Zone...

On two different days.

Then we held our May Mission Leadership Council.

We were blessed to have both of President Kohler's counselors with us:  

President Gappmaier and President Höferl.

Look who came to visit--President and Sister Miles!

The first Sunday of the month we enjoyed having all of our wonderful stake presidents and our area 70, Elder Leimer with us in the mission home.

It was a great Coordinating Council Meeting.

Then President was on the road again to interview in Wien Zone.

Day Two in Wien.

Next he was in the Salzburg Zone...

and Day Two.

The second Sunday of May was a special day around the mission--Mother's Day!  It was a great chance for all of the missionaries to Skype home.  We also go to Skype our missionary too.  It had to be a 4-way to get us all together!

The next week President Kohler was interviewing and training in Zürich Zone

Back in the mission office things were all stirred up for painting and re-carpeting.  

Our office staff had to relocate down to the basement.

Then President Kohler was in St. Gallen Zone...

for two days.

We were excited to welcome Elder & Sister Lake into the mission.
They will be serving in Ravensburg, Germany!

On our way down to Bern Stake Conference that weekend, 

we caught up with two of our Elders in Dornbirn.

On Saturday we spoke in the Bern Stake Conference.

On Sunday we went to church in Wettingen, Switzerland.

And back in Munich that evening we were happy to have a visit 

from President Auras and our Assistants.

The next week President was on the road again--this time to train and interview in the Stuttgart Zone.

And one more day there!

Then back home for München Stake Conference.  We love our stake presidency.

And finally it was transfer time again--our 26th and final transfer!  Here we are waiting at the airport for our Goldens to arrive.

And here they are--our 4 wonderful new Goldens!

They got ready to head on the bahn for their first contacting.

The next morning they were ready and excited to go to their first areas.

And as always, it was action-packed at the bahnhof in Munich!

As our wonderful office Elders were buying tickets for our missionaries they were asked by multiple random people to help them as well--they thought they were employed there.  

Our good Elders just stayed and helped many people!

That evening we had a pleasant dinner with our going home group.

We will miss these 7 wonderful missionaries!  It was a full month.
