OH MY GOODNESS I PROMISE I DIDN'T FLAKE LAST WEEK. We didn’t really have a pday last week because we went to the temple that Wednesday for our pday! Let me tell you! I'm super duper Grateful for that amazing experience and that spiritual power and love that I felt as I was able to sit in God's house and ponder and reflect on my experience as a missionary and on my life!
Friends and Family! The Temple is a Holy Place, it is a place for us to be to help God's children accept the gospel. It is a place for us to receive revelation and divine power. It is a place of peace and eternal love! Oh how grateful I am for the Temple🤍
These past 2 weeks have been absolutely outstanding and incredible!
MIRACLES EVERYWHERE!! GOD BLESSES US TO BE INSTRUMENTS IN HIS HANDS!
I'm so grateful and happy to be on a mission to experience this great love and joy from our Heavenly Father and to share it with all!
We are teaching a man named Ebow! He is incredible and will be baptized on the 26th and he is so excited. He has changed so much and we promised him that if he changed his work schedule and made time to come to church, everything in his life would be better. He is changing it!!!!! What a blessing and what a great change Ebow is making to follow our Savior in everything!!
We have a man named Michael who is on date to be baptized this October 2nd! He has had an absolutely insane story. He was hit by a car about 4 weeks ago and is still healing and has problems with his family. But he is willing to change and we meet with him almost everyday to read the Book of Mormon and to teach him the gospel!
We have another 2 people named Omkumar and Blake that are friends with a member on a mission somewhere else and we all teach these guys! They are amazing and came to Church! They are ready to keep commitments and we are teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ and will talk more about baptism with them!
Justin Getz! Is an amazing man who has been through CRAP but he came to Church and even BORE HIS TESTIMONY!! WHAT A MIRACLE! His testimony was simple and powerful about what he's been through and how he came to know GODS LOVE FOR HIM AND FOR ALL HIS CHILDREN!! Justin struggles with many things in the church but we really think our connection with him and the relationship we've built with him and how we've helped him be in the Book of Mormon has blessed and changed his life in ways he doesn't even notice yet.
I'm grateful for my companions! Elder Lee and Elder Blake are MY FAVORITE PEOPLE EVER!! WE HAVE SUCH A FUN TIME BUT
....... when we teach we teach with straight POWER!! THE HOLY GHOST IS POWERFUL!
I'm grateful for companions who care, who love, who are obedient, and who teach through their authority with Power! I love my companions!!

Sacrifice:
- giving up our time and talents for Christ
" Sacrifice can be seen as, what do I need to take on"
Sacrifice is not just what we’re giving up but what we are willing to take on for ourselves! I love this! Jesus Christ sacrificed all but he also took upon him the cross and our afflictions and all these things! I want to invite yall to see what you can sacrifice to the Lord! Especially what you can give up but more importantly what can you take on...
Divine Power! OH MY GOSH EASILY MY FAVORITE SUBJECT OF THE GOSPEL!
->THE ENABLING POWER OF THE ATONEMENT
-> STRENGTH FROM THE LORD
-> DIVINE POWER
The enabling power of The Atonement, we receive this from our Savior Jesus Christ and from following him and reading the Book of Mormon as we learned from Elder Bednar! The power we can access from Christ and His Atonement and from the Book of Mormon is incomprehensible! I invite yall to try it and make it a part of your daily life!!
Now GRATITUDE!! MY FAVORITE THING!!
the healing power of gratitude is a real thing! We taught today about Gratitude and about how we need to look for things we are grateful for in hard times because that's also how we access the Strength in the Lord! That's how we will have divine power and help through Jesus Christ! Gratitude is amazing! I love this Quote,
" Be Grateful Everyday" also " Express Gratitude open and often"
I LOVE THESE! IT IS SO TRUE AND THROUGH BEING GRATEFUL WE WILL DEEPEN OUR LOVE FOR OTHERS! WE WILL ACCESS POWER THAT GOD HAS READY FOR US AND BLESSINGS WITHOUT NUMBER!!
Our MLC last week talked alot about how we will access this divine power and the strength of the Lord deeper in the coming months! If you're curious (because I have already written alot) hit me up and we can talk about it! BECAUSE I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!
I will leave you with a couple of scriptures that I like!
- Ecclesiastes 3:1 -> everything has a purpose and a season! Remember where you are and be grateful for being there because there is a reason
- 2 Nephi 31:20 -> Eternal Life!! Through Accessing Christ Divine Power Through His Atonement!! 🤍
- Finally.... My Favorite Talk right now!!
" Jesus: The Perfect Leader"
READ IT NOW!!! IT IS INCREDIBLE!!
LOVE Y’ALL SO MUCH!!
I know that my Savior lives and is aware of us! He loves you and He loves me! Turn to him in trials, afflictions, hard times! Turn to him for power and strength! I promise He is always there no matter what!
Love,
ELDER WOLD!! ❤🤍❤
