The Hungarian Romanian Mission

Hey all!!!!
   
Well I unfortunately used my time differently this week for email... but I hope you enjoy the picks from our great adventure in Hungary. It was more than just a vacation I promise!

WHAT??!!!

We never had a free minute (except for pday). Some of the many things that we did included: training the office elders for doing all Romanian duties possible, meeting with the Assistants in Hungary and bouncing off ideas, and comparing how our missions do things, counseling with the Hettingers and the Hungarian Assistants, participating in the Hungary Mission Leadership Counsel, welcoming in the new trainee, Elder Seegmiller from the aeroport (he is an incredible missionary and we had a lot of fun contacting in Budapest together), eating good food, and just in general getting a feel for how we can better unite these two countries into one mission. Such a unique experience that I think will really bless these two nations.

Elder Allred is a great office elder.

Welcoming Elder Seegmiller!

Just want to share a really quick experience- during Missionary Leadership Council, the very first mission president of the Hungary and Romania mission came in and shared his testimony to us. As he spoke, the spirit filled the room as he testified that although these two nations have differences politically and culturally, to let God deal with that and let us focus on the similarities, and help these people come closer to God! 
Counselling with one another

Super fun to spend the week with these guys, working sharing information, and even got a little fun in on Pday!

Enjoying the view.

Crazy to think that just a couple of months ago this change was announced, and now all of this has happened! I know that this change is a sign of the Lord's work hastening in these latter days. The church is true!
Happy Day!

Bogdan and us

So much more to say, I hope to tell you all more next week.

  1. Amazing that my favorite Romanian Elder is now in Hungary with my niece Sister Robertson. The Lord does work miracles in a short time.

  2. What a beautiful city! Makes me want to take a trip to Hungary just to see the amazing architecture! Sounds like a lot of hard work has made many miracles on that side of the world. You are a great missionary, Elder Ditto!
