Oliver lost his scripture bag a few weeks ago. He set it down on the train and then forgot and moved seats. When her remembered, he looked around and his bag was gone. I didn’t have much hope of finding it, but I asked around a little bit and didn’t see how we would possibly get it back. A couple weeks later I was talking to a friend who told me about fundamt, a website where there is a list of all “Found” items in the city of Vienna. You can also report lost items. I checked it out and after a couple different searches found an item that sounded like it might be Oliver’s. I emailed them and got a reply asking me to come to the Zentrales Fundservice office to see if the bag they had was Oliver’s. And… it was!
Someone had found his bag, put it in the Fundbox and it ended up here. The kids were so excited! We even have a Fundbox near our apartment and now they know what it is for. I am so grateful to those who made it possible for Oliver to find his scriptures. And so grateful to know about this awesome service in the city!
