The flowers and dandelions all grow together. They love any and all flowers. The lawns are full of dandelions, and when they are cut the people are disappointed. It reminds me of the scripture that the Lord lets the rain fall and the sun shine on all of his creations. Maybe we should re-look at the dandelion.

Sister Richter has quite a history to tell about the years during the war. She had a bomb drop right into their front yard, but it did not explode...She raised her children out of the church because her husband would not come, then when he passed away she came back to church. She has done the temple work for him and they are now sealed.

Sister Klee (r)..is our wonderful sister whom we were able to be "instruments" in re-activating. She loves the gospel, and is now moving ahead with a life of commitment to Christ and His gospel. We will be attending the temple next week to complete her family work, and have her sealed to her parents!

Our sisters "love" Elder Muhlestein. It will be hard to to leave these wonderful people. This is Sister Kuper. She also teaches the R.S. lessons on Sunday, and on Tuesday we have Heim Abend. This lesson is the Old Testament lesson, and she rotates with 2 others sisters for that lesson. Elder M. also teaches on occasion.

We had a wonderful R.S. (FHV) activity by going for a walk in the park on May 1st. This is a Holiday here in Germany, and everyone that can celebrates with a walk or activity. These are a few of our branch sisters, the Elders, and Jessie (11) and Ben (5), and Elder Muhlestein. I'm behind the camera. (whew)

We welcome Elder Kearl and Elder Puriri to our Nordhausen area. We are so grateful that they are prepared warriors, and come here with excitement

and

commitment.

This is Elder Kearl's last

assignment before he is homeward bound.

We said good-bye to Elder Mason, who was transfered. He drew the pictures for us that we have used on flyers for our less-active members. One of "the seed" Alma 32, and another of "the ball or director" that we will be using for placing our trust and faith in the Lord, our Redeemer, and following His path back to our Heavenly Home. The Kirche Jesu Christi der Heiligen der Letzten Tage gives us this path.
