A Few Added Pictures

I just wanted to add a couple of pictures to my previous ones.  This is our apartment.  We live on the third floor.  This is very typical of the German homes.  They are almost always two or three levels with a different family living on each floor.
This is the church building which they rent.  It is quite nice.  No one else uses the bldg.
We had dinner Sunday evening with Hyrum Durtschi and family.  They have twin boys five years old, and they are a hand full.  We have a nice evening with them.  His wife Rochelle is going to take me shopping on Post tomorrow.  It will be a while before we get shopping privileges.  There is a bit of red tape to go through.  I should have taken a picture of us on Saturday shopping at the German grocery store.  It was kind of fun trying to figure out what things were.
Just the sign on the church.  We do have two very nice Elders in the ward as well as ourselves.  They have been very help in showing us around and helping us get started hereOpps, another picture of the church.

So, you're not staying on the military base? I bet it's nice to know a familar face. How many people are in your ward? Are the ward boundries pretty big?

I love seeing the photos; it is comforting to be able to picture exactly where you are.

We are not on the base. I don't know how many people are in the ward but it is quite a large ward. I think the boundaries are huge but most of the people live within a few miles of the base. Most of the people are connected to the base in some way. I was surprised at the number of civilians here that work for the government (schools, etc.). Most seem to like it very much and don't plan to return to the States. (This is not the military personnel)
