On Tuesday, Feb 13, at 9:30 am Elder Hays boarded a Delta plane in SLC and headed to Boston, Amsterdam and then Berlin. Brandon called from the Boston airport. It was so great to hear his voice. He had a missionary moment on the flight as he read the Book of Mormon with a college student sitting next to him. She promised to let more missionaries visit her. Brandon was thrilled to say the least. Here are some pictures Sister Kosak first posted on the Germany Berlin Mission Blog.
Elder Hays' trainer is Elder Guiccone. We've heard great things...
Elder Hays then went with other missionaries into Berlin to teach the gospel!
Here is the email we received the day after he arrived. . .

Dear

Sister Kosak and I look forward to working with him and will do all that we can to help him serve a happy and successful mission. Elder Hays’s first companion will be Elder Guccione, and they will work together in Groitzsch for the next several weeks. This is his current mailing address:
