Well, on Saturday was the baptism of Stefan Bullinger! It was way good. I love baptisms and dislike them at the same time. I really dislike baptismal services. They are too big of a pain (to orchestrate). The baptism was good, though. Stefan was baptized by a member (actually named Stefan as well), and then on Sunday he was confirmed by the stake president. The stake president is in our ward, and Stefan talked to the stake president for a really long time once and he likes him a lot. Stefan's sister and mother came to his baptism. That was pretty much the highlight of the week. It's not every week that you baptize someone.
Stefan is actually going to go to the temple, though, next month. Next month is a ward temple trip and he has been wanting to go to the temple since we talked to him about it.
This upcoming Saturday, I will be going to Munich to see President Monson! I'm thinking of the upcoming weekend as General Conference Part 2, because I will see President Monson on Saturday in Munich, and on Sunday he will be speaking in Frankfurt. There will be a broadcast of his talk in Frankfurt on Sunday. We will actually have no meetings on Sunday because he's going to talk for two hours. I'm pretty excited, though. I'll get to see President Monson! He'll speak for two hours, as well, in Munich when I'm there. He was in Berlin and Hamburg this past weekend. Everyone here is so excited that the Prophet is coming. I'm excited, as well!
Tschüß (Bye),
