Hello from Germany

Hey there everyone,

So what to say about me? I'm a 22-year old from Germany.

Nobody in my family believes in God and that makes me sad sometimes.

I've come to know Christ when I spent a year in the US where I went to a baptist church.

A few months ago I started being interested in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and so I read a lot of things online and I listened to some online content, watched videos and stuff. I have to say I feel drawn to the church. I started praying regularly and it's been a wonderful experience. I'm growning and I know one day I will be brave enough to take another step. For now I'd be glad to hear from you. Tell me about how the church infuelces your daily life. If you're a convert, I'd love to hear stories of how you found out about the church. I'd be glad to tell you more about myself too.

I hope everyone has a great day :)

Hello Lita! My grandmother was from Leipzig. Cant find any of my family there around. Everyone was lost in the war and the papers were burned.... Maybe some day.

I am happy to hear you believe in God and happy to hear, that you are investigating LDS Church. I hope you have a chanse to listen or read Elder Hollands speach in the conferance we just had. It is fenomenal! I can also say that I know this Church is the true Church of Jesus Christ and I welcome you here on this netside and to the Church when you feel for it. It will be the best ride in your life!:)

My maiden name is Manderscheid-- and so you see that is German. I have always wanted to go to the town by that name where our family came from, and it has a ruined castle too.

I even began to try to learn German by listening to tapes while I sewed, but it didn't stick, much-- (I remember an important phrase though-- inportant for us grannys anyway-- "Wo is de damsen tolettias" (probably all mispelled! :(.

My brother married a dutch girl, and several of my family have made trips to Germany, which I hope to some day.

Anyway,. welcome to here, and may you be blessed to have your family come closer to the light of Jesus Christ each day-- which I believe they will from your good example, and because I believe that God is seeking after us all the time too.

Another hobby of mine since I was a teenager- was to learn about other faiths (my Mom suggested I needed to do that, as my testimony was pretty one sided-- I only knew what the church taught-- not what others believed or why) and it has TOTALLY helped me and strengthened my testimony of Jesus Christ and also been very interesting too.

I like the short sound bite to describe the LDS faith.

We claim to be the re-established original Christian church;

1. Jesus Christ organized a church

2. men changed it

3. It has been brought back

It is my testimony to you that it is true, and I encourage you to pray as you search for the truth. Gods blessings on you. (I'd write good by in German if I could spell it-- something like Alf verdersain?-- you can tell my learning was only audio :/. Gramajane

Have a great day.
