We brought the whole mission to Bucharest for the Memorial Service. Elder Kopischke's plane was delayed so we held the service in the afternoon when he arrived. That morning, however, we met with all the missionaries at the chapel, sang a song, prayed, and then had a special activity. The missionaries divided up into groups and went to various busy spots in the city to contact. It was a great experience and the missionaries had lots of opportunities to share the gospel. They also received many names and numbers to follow up on later.

What a special event - I think his plane was meant to be delayed!
This does look like an army! What a neat experience, especially with missionaries so humbled.
The mission looks amazing!! They look so strong and powerful!
What a neat thing to do. I'm glad you got some pictures of the groups sharing the gospel.
