😇SAVIOR, REDEEMER!!😇

 HELLO EVERYONE!! SORRY I DIDNT WRITE LAST WEEK. It has been extremely busy and JOYOUS!! The weather has become so beautiful!! The wonderful cooling wind and the rolling hills. So 2 weeks ago we had Elder Renlund from the Quorum of the twelve Apostles come and visit our mission. It was such a spectacular and great opportunity to be with him and his wife. Sister Becky Craven from the Young Women's General Presidency, Elder Bowen from the general seventy and his wife. We also had our area seventy, Elder Galt. It was such a wonderful and fun time to rub shoulders with them and talk. :) I learned many many things from them. I'll put it in here shortly. 

These past 2 weeks have been miraculous and full of Joy and the Pure Love of Christ!! So many wonderful friends accepting a date to be baptized and coming to church!! AHHH I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!!!! THERES NOTHING BETTER THEN TEACHING RESTORED & ETERNAL TRUTHS TO OTHERS! :) I can definitely say I've felt the Love that Christ has for our fellow Brothers and Sisters. Here are some of their stories: 

<> Lauren Fath is a wonderful young women that's 17 almost 18 years old. She is friends with the Seniors in our ward. We have roleplayed with these seniors and invited them to invite their friends. THEY DID. SHES BEING TAUGHT AND SHE LOVES IT. she comes from a catholic background and loves God. Has come to church the last 6 times in a row and we just started having the opportunity to teach her. She's an only child and loved the restoration yesterday. We are teaching the Plan of Salvation and hope to help her make a covenant with God in the next 2 weeks or so. We love her and her enthusiasm for the Gospel. We all got emotional toward the end of the lesson as we talked about God's pure love toward us! It was powerful and the Spirit was flowing!! 

《》 Nancy, Jeremias, Junior, & Jayden Ngampika: 

They are from Angola, Africa!! They came to a sports night we hosted last week. We've had multiple lessons with them and they're elect. Nancy is the mom. Then her kids are 12,10,8. The other 3 kids she has and her husband are still in Africa! Really rough and we pray for them as much as we can. The loved the restoration! We taught and explained the Book of Mormon. She had lots of questions, did the kids. We answered and testifed!! THEY LOVED IT AND RECOGNIZED THE SPIRIT!! just as we taught them. It was such an incredible thing to witness! The Spirit was mighty! We will put them on date this upcoming week. 

<> Tressica and Isa! Very crazy story with them.  Isa struggles a lot with demons and other things. We have given her blessings and everything is getting better and better. They have both accepted a date to be baptized at the end of October. The 29th. We have taught them slowly and by simple truths and it's been so so good for them :). 

☆ THE MEMBERS IN THESE 2 WARDS ARE EVERYTHING TO ME!! THEY ARE MY GEORGIAN FAMILY. I KNOW I NEEDED TO END MY MISSION HERE WITH THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE SO IMPORTANT TO ME!! 

There have been so many small miracles and impressions that have come as we have been out and about talking to everyone!! Teaching Restored truths when you randomly talk to people or whatever it is, is my favorite!! People who maybe haven't heard of the gospel or maybe people who have a skewed perspective. We get to teach and testify to them and invite and help them come to our Savior! Our wonderful and perfect Redeemer!! :) 

We had a wonderful Zone Conference this past weekend! We talked alot about Covenants and the importance of the covenants we make and keep. They are vital to EVERYTHING in our life. It's the ONLY way to live with our Father again. It truly is a gift if we choose to accept it. One thing I loved is about CHOOSING HIM!! Good vs. Essential. There are good things in life butn there are things that are essential. Things as Prayer. Scripture Study. Family time. Church Attendance. Covenants. Temple. Sacrament. And so many more!! I love this gospel and the opportunity to share with all. As I gave my departing testimony in zone conference I got to choose the song before I did and it was the 

"EFY Medley -> As Sisters in Zion and We'll bring the world his truth." THIS SONG IS SPECTACULAR!! I COULD NOT HELP BUT CRY. AS I WAS ABLE TO WITNESS OF MY BROTHER AND FATHER. I FELT AN IMMENSE SENSE OF LOVE!! I KNOW THEY LIVE!! I know it! I KNOW THEY LOVE!! I know it!! They mean everything to me. It was awesome to reflect on my mission. To think about the character of Christ. To ponder and reflect on MY MOST FAVORITE THING! 

□ THE ATONEMENT OF JESUS CHRIST □ 

IM SO GRATEFUL, SOO SOO GRATEFUL!! FOR HIM AND HIS SACRIFICE!! everyday i think about how I can choose him and represent Him. I think about what can I bring to the altar of sacrifice to better serve Him. GODS PURPOSE IS TO BRING HIS CHILDREN BACK HOME TO HIM!! THAT IS MY PURPOSE. I know I can be an effective instrument in His hands everyday if I choose Him and choose to Hear Him. The Spirit leads us in our thoughts, impressions, actions, and words. As we live in accordance and are worthy and are tuned in and act with our celestial Radio. WE WILL BE HIS HANDS AND ANGELS HERE ON EARTH!! I LOVE T

HESE TRUTHS!! I LOVE HIM! 

In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. 

Grateful for you!! I come home in 2 weeks. My flight lands at 12:20pm on Wednesday October 12. If you'd like to come feel free. I will also give a departing testimony over zoom on October 9th. I will send the link next Monday. Thamk you for all the support!! I love you all!! 

I don't have time to write about more miracles so here's a picture! Please keep being awesome!! Take my invite, How will you choose Him today? What will you sacrifice for Him? I promise as you do so MIRACLES WILL BE EVIDENT IN YOUR LIFE!! 🤍🤍

Heyo!!

 I have no time to write this week. I really wish I could. We have a family. Diana and her family that want to be baptized. Brenda King got baptized! We have been working so much with the members and they have so many wonderful friends we started teaching!!

 IM SO GRATEFUL FOR MY SAVIOR! The Sacrament this past Sunday was incredible. I truly felt a deep deep connection with My Father and with Jesus Christ!! I felt His spirit so strongly and so clearly. It was an experience of repentance/change that I will never forget.

 I'm grateful for the opportunity to be in an ordinance room every Sunday to partake of His emblems. To bring forth what I will sacrifice to better partake and receive His sacrifice as a gift. He is special to me!! He is everything to me! I promise and testify that HE LIVES!! I witness of His strength and love. It is unlike anything in this finite world. He Love, Strength, and guidance is infinite! Please turn your focus to him. How can you better Hear Him? 

- What lack I yet? What would He have you do! Please ponder and pray for His guidance! He has a very specific plan for you and He needs you to align your Will with His. I testify of Him and His Full Gospel.

Love you all!!

God is a God of Miracles! HE LEADS THIS WORK!!

 GOD IS TRULY A GOD OF MIRACLES!! 

We found so so so many people!! English and Spanish!! What a week or miracles. What a week of love, joy, and true and lasting peace. There is NOOO where I'd rather be than in my home. Georgia is HOME! This is where I've come to know my Lord, Jesus Christ! This is where I've understood His doctrine! This is where I've felt His love unlike anything before. This is where I've been converted and changed for Life while helping so many people doing the same! 

I'm grateful for this week and the rest of this transfer to help ALL PEOPLE COME UNTO CHRIST!! I've never felt more urgent! I can only thing of His precious children! I love them, so so much! They are needed in His Church! I'm so excited to share some experiences with these lovely friends!! 

♡MIRACLES♡

° Tony Fero! Just a stud! He can't be baptized for a while because he needs to pay some restitution back to the world. He is a great man and comes every week. We will get him an assignment soon for the ward to help others. He truly is incredible! His questions are perfect and He just wants to know all truth. He is and loves it. We fasted with him and he paid his Tithing on Sunday!! 

Areli and Manuel, Latino family that are so sweet. I got to say a couple things in Spanish. I felt the Spirit so strong talking to them and I loved it. The gospel is true no matter what language it's spoken in. 

Orlando is doing amazing!! He loves the gospel and is excited and willing to make the changes needed in his life. Just a miracle as we had the chance to testify! He has been changed.

 Carley's baptism was perfect!! She has been such a light to her family. We've been able to see them 3 times this week. She is working toward the temple! She is the sweetest!

We met a family from Angola, Africa!! They are the cutest. Nancy (the mom) then there’s Jeremias, Junior, and Jayden. We were visiting some friends and on our way down from the top floor the Spirit just HIT ME!! strong and I knew I needed to knock the door. It was so funny. We introduced ourselves and asked if she was Christian. She let us right in haha. We taught the restoration and the HOLY GHOST MANIFESTED HIMSELF TO THEM. I TESTFIED WITH EVERY FIBER OF MY BEING THAT JESUS LIVES! HE LOVES US! HE GAVE US HIS TRUTH JUST LIKE HE ALWAYS HAS THROUGH PROPHETS, AUTHORITY, AND THE FULLNESS OF HIS EVERLASTING GOSPEL. oh how grateful I am for that experience. 

I know because I strive everyday to be pure even as He is and to grow grace by grace. To learn line upon line and to do the small and simple things, FULL HEARTEDLY, I see miracles. Sometimes I am the miracle! What a blessing to be angels to others. 

I love 2 Nephi 32. Verse 2 and 3 teach us about what happens as we receive the Holy Ghost. As we receive greater power we are more worthy to have Him in our life. We can speak with the tongues of angels. I testify that we are His angels! I love this quote. 

" God does notice us and He watches over us but it is usually through other people that he meets our needs."

We need to Hear Him! As we let God prevail in our lives. As we feast upon the words of Christ, Fast and Pray oft, and gather together oft we let Him into our lives. In turn He needs us to help others. As we act on spiritual promptings and impressions. We will be led and guided to DO WHAT HE NEEDS DONE AND TO SAY WHAT HE WANTS SAID! 

We met another wonderful family. Leo and His kids. They are from Guatemala. We asked to come in and we were able to teach them. We said a prayer and it was powerful. The spirit enveloped the room. 

They gave us a ton of referals to visit other people too.

 As we went to visit these people. 2 other wonderful precious children were brought to our path. Kate was getting home from work at Walmart. side note. She's never at home. So we caught her right when she was walking in. As we spoke for the first time. We asked her about her life. About God's influence. She didn't believe in God. She just didn't see how. We asked her “do you hope there is a God?” She said I think I do. WE TESTIFED AGAIN OF HER DIVINE POTENTIAL AS A DAUGHTER OF GOD! Her countenance changed for looking exhausted to BRIGHT! THE SPIRIT BROUGHT TO HER REMEMBERANCE THE THINGS SHE HAS ALWAYS KNOWN TO BE TRUE. As we spoke we taught about our Savior and His Church and taught the Restoration. She was blown away that God loves us so much that He sent His son and His son brought us so much. She wants peace in her life and wants to make changes. She was beautiful! 

As we again were about in this area. We met my newest and bestest friend Ty'eesha. SHE IS SO KIND! she's in her 20s. As we spoke and taught about our purpose as missionaries we testfied of The Restored Gospel. She was very grateful and lit up! Her mom Kay had met with missionaries and members in Missouri! What a wonderful miracle!!

 Our wonderful friend Lauren is a friend of many members and even with another friend Camille we've been teaching. She DECIDED TO TAKE THE LESSONS. OUR LESSON IS NEXT MONDAY!! WE ARE SO PUMPED!! :) 

I know that was a lot. I just am so happy and want to remember these things! I read a lot in the Book of Mormom this week. I'm trying to finish again before I go home. I'm in Alma 5,6,7. What such amazing chapters. Alma 5 has so much to disect.  I love Alma as a missionary! He is the greatest example of a believer and follower of Christ! I want to receive Gifts just like He has.

 I love my Heavenly Father! It's evident everyday that He loves me. He shows HIMSELF to me in so many ways, through tender mercies and miracles! I am a witness of His Son Jesus Christ and of His Church! I invite each of you to ponder on His love and His guidance in your life. 

"REMEMBER, REMEMBER" the scriptures always teach us that. 

- How will you remember Him today? 

I remember Him and will be His forever! I testify of these things in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen. 

♡ Love, 

Elder Wold 

HE LIVES!
