I'll start with Zone Conference and Stake Conference! We as a mission were blessed to hear from Elder Teixiera from the Presidency of the 70 and his wife and also Elder Wright from the 70! Man oh man Elder Teixiera has been called of God! He focused a lot on the importance of the Book of Mormon and gave us a training on how we can use it better! He also talked about the importance of prayer and how praying with our friends that we are teaching is super important! He gave us a new way to find people naturally through having prayers with everyone that we come in contact with! It was so good! His wife talked about the importance of being bold and being obedient! She called all of us to repentance lol, that we need to be more humble! Something that I loved that she talked about was not giving in to the traditions of the mission or the norms of the mission! A lot of times missions have this culture that they can only get a certain number of baptisms a month! Her and Elder Teixiera both talked about that topic that we have to change something, we have to do something more if we want to have more converts and be better instruments in the hand of the Lord! The power of prayer is something that we have to use!
Zone Conference was so good but Stake Conference was just as good! It seemed that the topic of the whole weekend was the Book Of Mormon! Stake President Hendricks gave his talk and compared the Book of Mormon to a Assistant Driving device or a Lane Departure Warning in a car! He talked about how life we have a path to get us back to our Heavenly Father and the Book of Mormon is our Lane Departure warning that pulls us into the lane! Even though in life we sometimes get by the edge the Book of Mormon will always help us get back to the straight path and ultimately that is where we are happy! After these conferences my testimony of the Book of Mormon has gotten even stronger!!! We are so blessed to have the Book Of Mormon!
Interviews with President and Sister Jackman were good as always! I always come out of those feeling pumped to work harder and be a better missionary! Sister Jackman and I talked about the example we are as missionaries to everyone around us but especially to our family! Man I started tearing up when we talked about my little brothers! I realized that I not only am serving a mission to serve the Lord but to be a good example to the little bros and all my other little cousins that I love as brothers too! It was such a good interview that I won't ever forget! It has given me another fire to work harder and try and be a better missionary every day!
Happy Birthday Shout out to Sistonz, Monique and Big Beav! Love you all so much!
This week was so good! I love you all so much!
Con Amor,
Elder Ka'ili
