That has got to wear you out at the end of the day, don't you think? Meanwhile we were trying to clean an apartment that had 18 months of grime in it. This is Yuri, from Jel...

Sometimes Elder Davis shares favorite things from his past with the young single adults in Riga, Latvia and they, in eagerness share his delight and enjoyment.like when he showed the Christmas movie, "It's a Wonderful Life".

Wednesday, November 28, 2012. When Pres. Malm came through on his mission tour, he encouraged and inspired the Baltic missionaries to bring many souls to the waters of baptism!
