Hello everyone!
Another week has already gone by! What can I say more about serving this mission for the Savior that I haven't already? I learned this week (well, more of how to teach it) that in this world there are many different churches, all with different ways of teaching, worshipping, and baptizing. That's great and all, that just means that the word of God is in all these places, and that people go to church "every now and then". However, all it is is just different ways to worship Him. But what is it doing for them? Is it changing them? Is it converting and enticing them to follow and keep the commandments? Do they know of a surety that they are receiving their salvation, or are they following "the traditions of their fathers". This is why the message of the Restoration is so important, clear, and easy to understand. Not only did Christ set up one church, but His power and authority to bind the ordinances on earth and heaven is ONLY found in this ONE church. Not only The Book of Mormon completely testifies of this as does the Bible. The church was lost for many centuries. Because of the wickedness of the people, God took away His church and power from us. But He loves us so much, Jesus Christ brought it back to earth from heaven. I know this is true. Many claim that they have been saved. But my heart is saddened when they wont hearken and listen that there is more to it. His true way is found on the earth again. As we are all members of His church, He being the head of it, we need to and can share these things with all whom we meet. Everyone needs that chance to choose to listen and use that faith that they already have.
Crud, no time left but I love everyone and hope they have success in all their doings. Just pray to our Heavenly Father for that help in all things He will answer the humble and righteous inquirers of His help.
