While most of Germany is celebrating Oktoberfest in the heart of Elder Spencer's mission area of Munich......  these Missionaries got to enjoy the food and sights of some of  it ..... Even his mission presidents family , Sister Kohler, Tanner and Erika have some Oktoberfest fun A surprise visit from Steffi Mucke from Ellwangen and yet during all the festivities these faithful young servants of the Lord stay focused on the important work they are doing ...Priesthood session of conference  MLC training, going over numbers and stats and trying to always improve  Working hard and enjoying the blessing of being a missionary in  Munich , Germany, which happens to be the heart of OKTOBERFEST

In our church, we believe in the literal gathering of Israel, and in the restoration of the 10 tribes. I am honored to play a part in the gathering process. However great or small my contribution may be, I know that this is a fulfillment of many prophecies. " That  then  the  Lord  thy  God  wi ll  turn  thy  captivity ,  and  hav e  compassion  upon  thee,  and  wi ll  return  and  gather  thee  from   all  the  nations,  whither  the  Lord  thy  God  hath  scattered  th ee." Deuteronomy 30:3.   Elder Spencer and Elder Vitel enjoying Oktoberfest helping in the Kitchen with Elder Vitel, Sister Smith and Sister Harman  

 OKTOBERFEST IN MUNICH ...handing our pass along cards of coarse!  FESTIVITIES  Playing for a district baptism with a little help  Elder Spencer and Elder Vitel had to move! they have a super nice apartment about 20 minutes from the mission office  Elder Bauerfeind from Germany and Elder Vitel from Romania   the figures in this keep calm and preach the gospel banner are spencer and vitel The church is true. Everyday i receive a confirmation of the truthfulness of the work that we are doing. Sometimes i feel like one of the sons of Mosiah. When we think of their missionary efforts we usually think of ammon and aaron. But sometimes we forget about the missionaries like Himni! There are no stories of him converting a king, or converting thousands, but he too was a missionary, and took part in the work of the Lord. That is all that he asks us to do. Do our part in hastening the work of salvation. The work will go forth!

We talked about how important it is to become a preach my gospel missionary. Not just a missionary that goes through the motions, or someone that has their own way of doing it, rather a missionary that follows the council given to us by the Brethren. Lately i have been listening to the Mission Presidents Seminar. We have on CD here in the apartment, and I have learned a ton about how inspired PMG really is. If you want to be a missionary. Wait, if you want to fulfill your missionary OBLIGATION w...
