Happy Monday everyone! I hope things are going well, and that you are all enjoying summer. :) The summer here has been kinda crazy so far. Plenty of rain, some rather cold days, and some very hot days.

Not a whole lot to report. Cool member from Africa who had been having a hard time finding the Church in Germany showed up yesterday. Speaks English, and very little German. He didn't understand much of the meetings at all, but he was very happy to be there, and talked about how he would be there every week now that he knew where it was. I knew exactly how he felt not understanding the meetings. :P

As far as my spiritual thoughts this week, I would like to focus my thought on Christ. He is such a massive concept. Such a wonderous person. Through sheer love for us, He was enabled to suffer all things for all of God's children on all worlds for all of time. There is a wonderful quote, which seems to be a preface to a book written by a wonderful LDS woman. http://www.sober.com/forums/t/6580/talk+given+by+chieko+n+okazaki+lighten+up.aspx I encourage you to go read it. It is beautiful. I will also be posting a wonderful song on my blog that our stake Christmas choir sang a couple different Christmases. I hope you go listen to it.
I hope you all have a wonderful week. Remember Christ, and let Him play a bigger role in your day to day life. I promise you He would love to. I bear my testimony in His name that He truly is The Son of God. The Divine Redeemer. Our Loving Lord and King. Amen.
