Anyone have any news on if the church has gained it's official 'church' status in France? What about the results of the audits?

I would be interested in attending a Jones reunion if one is held. Thanks.

FYI - President Jones let me know that doing a reunion this fall would be a challenge for them, if not impossible, as they are not going to be released from their position in the Mesa Arizona Temple Presidency until November 1. This would not preclude anyone from having a reunion, but it would be great if we waited until next spring or fall to allow more notice and of course to have President and Sister Jones be able to attend. In his own words, "It is time for a reunion, which I think is long overdue!" - Thoughts? Feedback? Rich Asay

Blomquist and I have talked about doing this like every year and we never get more than just talking.
FYI - my grandparents have the perfect venue, they have the Brown's Pond property in Draper...very condusive to parties, inside or out. I live in Las Vegas, so it's hard for me to organize anything, but if someone wanted to organize it...we could just use e-vite.com or whatever. Potluck? Anyway, just to let you all know we could use the property, kids can feed the ducks, paddle boats, etc. Comments?

I am looking for information on my first sen. companion, Elder Ritchie. We served together in Courbevois in 1965. Does anyone have any information on him?

This is my first message. Some time ago someone in France translated the English
words into French from the song: "Mary's Lullaby", Written by sisters who are members of the church, for the Arizona Easter Pageant. It is a song sung by Mary as she rocks baby Jesus. Music by Wanda West Palmer, Words by Bertha A. Kleinman. There are many songs by this name, so not to get confused, the English goes like this: "All mine in your lov-li-ness, baby all mine. All mine in your hol-i-ness, baby divine. Sing on herald angels in chorus sublime. For you are a king, but tonight you are mine."
Today I was with my friend Wanda West Palmer, at our Stake Conference. It was there that our Arizona Temple Presidents wife told us about the translation. She is Sister Jones. I promised Wanda that I would search for those words. It has already been translated in Spanish. We would like to know the author of the French words so we can give that person credit. We may record and publish it. So, please if you have any information about this, please contact me.
Merci, Jeannette Viers Brooks

I recently came across a couple of sites that might interest other alumni -- they're run by amateur photographers who post one photo per day from the city.

And you can try http://www.citydailyphoto.com/portal/ for other cities you served in.

Does anyone know how to contact Celine Villalba? She lived in Troyes and then moved to Lyon. I assume she still lives there. Her email address no longer works. Anyone who has an address where I can write her would be my hero!! Thanks!

On 7/8/07 at aproximately 12:30 Soeur Denise Coupeaux was talking with her husband Albert about her sister in law Georgette, who is dealing with cancer and stated to her husband that she didn't think that Georgette was going to leave this earth first. Albert then asked what are you talking about she then stated that she was going to leave first, got up from the couch and then collapsed and passed away.
She was devoted to the church, missionary work, temple work and the branch of Caen.
One of her desires was to see the new church building built in Caen. The new church building was only opened three weeks prior to her passing and she did actually get to see its completion. She also is now the first person to have a funeral service at the church. The church is beautiful and made from the stone of Caen, which is which her tomb will be made of as well.
She raised 7 children and lived a long and beautiful life setting an example to her numereous grandchildren and great grandchildren. I am lucky enough to have married one of her children (Francoise) and I am forever greatful to Denise and her father for allowing me to marry such a wonderful person. She would not be the person she is with out the great mother that led and quided her.
Her funeral was held on 7/12/07 at 2 pm in the Caen Chapel. More than 200 people attended the funeral and graveside service.
My thanks and gratitude is extended to those that assisted from the Branch de Caen in her funeral services.
She will be surely missed by members of the church and those the knew her.
My love and gratitude for her is extremely profound.

We will have a reunion Friday, Oct. 5, 2007. We meet every Oct. Conf. weekend. It will be 7 - 10 p.m. at the Campbell residence: 1518 N. 375 W. Orem, UT. We will eat nutritious snacks, visit and play a board game if those attending would like. Bringing food is optional. Anyone who served under President Griffin is invited along with their guests or spouses.

As we are in the between season of typical mission reunions, which usually coincide with General Conference sessions, I wanted to just post a comment to advise everyone who is planning and coordinating a reunion to get the notice to me 45-60 days in advance of the reunion date, even sooner if the details are known.
It is highly unfair to those whom you would like to attend to give 1-2 weeks notice to make travel and accommodation arrangements. In most cases it requires several months advance notice to book a venue, and the announcements should be made as soon as the date and location are known. I want to help you make these gatherings a success! Please let me know what you have planned, and I will get them published and distributed.
Regards,
Rich Asay

Just a note to let you all know of the excitement in our home when my son Cameron received his call to the Geneva, Switzerland Mission! Another Francophone! C'est formidable!

Bonjour,
La Branche du Havre, en Normandie, recherche les missionnaires qui ont servi dans cette branche, à toutes les époques, pour constituer un "journal" de leur passage et de leur témoignage.
Si vous êtes passé au Havre pendant votre mission, si vous connaissez un missionnaire qui y a servi, et si vous avez son adresse e-mail, merci de prendre contact avec moi.
