When you get a group of LDS people together there is always food! There was a dinner provided members between the Saturday District Conference Sessions. It was great to mingle with these wonderful saints! They came from Bialystok, Poznan, Bydgoszcz, Lodz, and Lublin!
There was plenty of pizza to go around! We had enough pizza for the army.
The Jagers, Shahas and Nebozny found a quiet room to feed their kids...
...while the missionaries greeting people in the foyer of the chapel caught a fast bite to eat.
Also going on this week was a Warsaw District YSA activity day. Elders Klosowiak and Curtis were able to bring two great investigators to this event, Karol and Bartek. They were also able to attend the Saturday evening session of District Conference along with many other YSAs who were in town for the event.
That night, the Mission Home housed these great YSA's: Back Row L to R: Marta (Poznan), Karol (Kielce), Ewa (Bydgoszcz), Lukasz (Szczecin), Patricia (Kielce). Front row L to R: Elder Curtis, Bartek (Kielce), and Elder Klosowiak. Late as it was, there was always time for...
...ICE CREAM, and BROWNIES!!! It was also a 'thank you' to the Office Elders, Taylor and Darowski, for transporting them all back to the Mission Home. What a great group of YSA's! They were a joy to have stay with us. The next morning, after District Conference they headed home.

ReplyDeleteMy family and I are moving to Krakow in July. I've been following your blog on and off for a few months, but as our departure date comes closer I'm eager to make contact with church leaders to talk about how our family will connect with the church.
