Week 50 - It's Been A Great Week!

 Howdy Cowgirls and Cowboys!

It's me, yet again, with another wonderful email. 

This week has been so great. We did a ton of service, we spent some time with members, and did a bunch of work on Facebook.

Every week we usually help out at a place called "Community Storehouse in Keller" and "Christ's Haven for Children". This past week at the store house we helped out in their warehouse where they sort all the donated items. We spent a few hours sorting hangers and hanging clothes that would then be priced. At Christ's Haven we helped give families donated food! It's always super fun to help the community and the families in the community as well. We were also given a bunch of Monster energy drinks after our service, which was pretty dope.

I'm so blessed to be in this area, the Church members here are so kind to missionaries and they love to feed us. When we visit our members we usually share a spiritual message with them. 

This week we loved to share Amos 3:7 with them. 

"Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets."

In this scripture we learn that God reveals his secrets to the prophets. As many of you may know, as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints we believe there are living Prophets on the Earth today.  We believe that (like in the bible) there are Prophets called of God to help and give guidance to God's children here on Earth. 

I just want everyone to know that God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. God gives us Prophets, like he did a long time ago, to bless us and to warn us of dangers, and to point us in the right direction. Our Prophet today is a man named Russell M. Nelson. I want to challenge you all to pray and to ask God if Russell M. Nelson is a true Prophet of God. 

Twice a year our church has a worldwide conference when our prophet speaks to us. It is alway so wonderful to hear. I would like to invite all y'all to watch General Conference in the next coming weeks and listen to what the Prophet and others will say. It will air on BYU-TV or the church's website on Sunday, October 4th at noon, Eastern. I promise that if you listen with a sincere heart you will receive an answer to your prayers and you will be so so so happy! 

I testify that Prophets do indeed exist in these last days. I testify that Jesus is the Christ, and this is His gospel here on the Earth. The Book of Mormon is the word of God and it works hand in hand with the Bible. I know that prayer is real and it is powerful, and if you ask, you shall receive. 

I love every one of you so much, and God loves you even more. I say all these things in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
