The first missionary from Branch Hof

          Sophie Merkel has been called to serve a German speaking mission in Hawaii at the Laea visitors center.  We were privileged to go to the temple in Freiberg with her family.  We also plan to pick her up in Salt Lake and take her to the MTC in Provo so we get to act the "mom and dad" part later as well.

                           
                                 Later we went into Freiberg for lunch and a bit of sightseeing.
