"For behold, this is my work and my glory, to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man." Moses 1:39
Elder Kopischke taught that God's objective should be our objective as missionaries. We are helping people to obtain eternal life. Eternal life always includes our families. That totally is true that heaven without our family members wouldn't be heaven. He told of an experience he had visiting an older couple. He asked the wife- "What is your greatest desire?" She said, "To be sealed in the temple to this man, pointing to her husband." I think this touched her husband's heart and he chose to make this happen.
Elder Kopischke shared that he thinks this is how the gospel of Jesus Christ and the Church will grow in Europe. It's by helping each member to strive to bless their extended family with the gospel.
We had the largest group of Branch members at the Conference, almost more than even Zagreb Branch. It was so fun having everyone there, including some non-members and a wonderful returning member Živana.
