Hey just think next month is spring! This week Martin spent time listening to
recordings of members in Sheffield England who came from Slovakia and are
joining the Church there in large numbers.
These recordings are part of the Family History’s Oral History project
to capture voice records of members of the Church. Before they are submitted, the recordings
need to be indexed so researchers of the future will know what is on the
recording and where on the recording key topics were shared. Fun to hear the conversion stories as they
are translated from Slovak to English by a young Czech missionary serving in
England. Elaine distributed her first Europe Area Public Affairs Newsletter
last week. It was a work of art. Let us know and we’ll send you a copy. Yesterday we attended the baptism of Huifeng
Li in the morning and in the afternoon went to Mainz to the Gutenberg printing
museum. We learned all about the history of the famous bible and got to see one
of the 42 remaining in existence. There
were 180 2-volume sets printed in the day circa 1450-ish.
