Got a Great Letter From Matthew Today!

Matthew asks the following trivia question: What's the largest national product of Germany? Read his letter to learn the answer! Click here.

Matthew also bought a fedora and has found that it is working wonders! Not only is it keeping his head dry, but it works for tracting, too. When someone answers the door, he removes his hat and puts it down by his side. Not only is this polite, but it is a subtle hint that he expects to be invited inside!



Also, another fun thing is that his companion is Elder Hafer. Hafer in German means oats. So, they have taken a photo of Elder Hafer in hafer. Apparently, the ward members call him Elder Hafer Flaken (oat flakes)!!

We sent Matthew a birthday package with some icing, a cake mix, 20 candles, letters, cards, and a picture of Christ. The box was no bigger than a cake mix box! I'm a master packer if I do say so myself. Here is Matthew enjoying his gift:
