New Mission Pres Called

[Brinton]

Some one over in one of the BSM alumni groups on facebook posted the following link about the new mission president:

Their names are Gerold and Gertraud Roth from Austria.  The blurb doesn't mention that they are going to BG, but anyway....just thought someone might want to know and add them to the mission pres list.

Thanks, I already had added their names to the president list in the alumni database, but hadn't really made any sort of announcement about it because I didn't know anything other than their names.

If anyone else has any other relevant information to add about the new president, please let us know.

My daughter just received her call yesterday to BSM.  There is a biography about the Roths in her call.  Don't know if you have already received this info.  But here it is anyway:

Gerald Roth, 59, and Gertraud Schmidinger Roth, six children, (Bulgaria Sofia Mission); Salzburg-Flachgau Ward, Salzburg Austria Stake.  President Roth is a former ward Young Men President, Area Seventy, stake president and counselor, bishop, and missionary in the England North Mission.  Real estate developer.  Born in Lochen, Austria to Josef Franz Helmut and Gertrud Weissauer Roth.  Sister Roth is a former Gospel Essentials teacher, ward Relief Society, Primary, and Young Women President, and ward Sunday School teacher.  Born in Schwarzach, Austria, to Josef Ludwig and Margarethe Schmidinger.
