Family in 3D

  Youth of a Noble Birthright! Family from Afar! Spending time at the temple is always a highlight of any trip.  We were able to go with the youth from Romania to the Rome temple one last time before returning home.  They are amazing and confident.  The church is in good hands as they mature into the leaders there.  A little trip downtown capped off a wonderful spirit filled week.  Our highlight was being there with Ana Maria, Elisa and Sophia for their first time. Families are Forever! We left Rome and took a short side quest to Germany to see our kids there.  Clemens and Anna picked us up in Bremen and went to Anna's village of Lohne where we stayed a few days.  We were able to meet both of their families and had wonderful times with each.  While in the area we were able to spend some time with Luca, Christopher, Marcella and Henrich.  It was great to see them again.  Clemens and Christopher gave us a tour of the Grimme facility....

Farewells and Forever Friends

Follow the "Son" flower As we bid farewell to the beautiful country of Romania, we reflect on the many blessings we've received, the miracles we've witnessed and the lessons we've learned.  We love seeing the blooming of the sunflower.  We were welcomed into the country by them and are bid farewell by them.  We have learned a great lesson from them.  When they awake in the morning the first thing they do is look for the sun and as the day progresses keep their focus on it.  Oh, that we could take courage from them as we wake each day and look to the "Son" and have our focus on Him throughout the day. Our last district conference found us at the church as our apartment was in disarray.  We attempted breakfast one more time and had a wonderful meeting.  FOREVER FRIENDS                           Trian and Maria                      ...
