Mom and I taking Elder Klein (Rancho Santa Margarita, CA) and Elder Castro-Guzman (France) to the local French cafe to meet Marie, the owner, who is French. Elder Castro-Guzman used his native language skills and Marie is starting the missionary lessons Saturday. Photograph shows the elders with Brother Veliu a 1st Branch member who me met on the way.

Recently there has been some very serious flooding in northern Albania. The city of Shkoder was hit hardest with 500 families having to evacuate their homes. The Church donated $22,000 of basic food commodities to their relief. This is picture of article which appeared in local Tirana newspaper. The headline reads, "Church of Jesus Christ and Saints donates aid for Shkoder". The photograph shows the missionary Elders and Sisters loading the food.

Last Sunday, January 31, 2010, Mom and I were in Vlore to speak in Sacrament meeting and to give a lesson for their Institute aged young adults. Monday it was rainy and overcast but we walked along the shoreline near town before heading back to Tirana. The above photo shows beach side statue with fisherman in background. We stayed Sunday night at the New York Hotel which is located very near the point of land on left.

This is photograph of the Vlore young adults who were in our Institute class on Sunday.

We are getting slammed with snow in these parts. DC is getting some 20-30 inches. This is the 2nd weekend in a row. Church will probably be cancelled again. Crazy....and then another storm on Tuesda yor Wednesay. It is very unseasonal for us.It is definitely not global warming, huh?
I would love another visit to that French cafe. Those desserts and hot chocolate were so tasty.
