D+C 123:12-13

"For there are many yet on the earth among all sects, parties and denominations...who are only kept from the truth because they know not where to find it--Therefore, that we should waste and wear out our lives in bringing to light all the hidden things [out] of darkness, wherein we know them; and they are truly manifest from heaven--these should then be attended to with great earnestness."

Sorry for the flipped order of letters...
 
Hey everyone!   It´s been a fantasic week- we are truly seeing the Lord work here in Rio Branco, and it´s great to get to work with Him. Do you remember that training that we made for the Ward councils? So, we´ve been using that to train the ward here, and it is totally working. More that something that we invented, it´s just the church handbook put extrememly simply. (I´ll try to sent an mp4 to you!) But, we had the 2 baptisms with Mateo and Luana last saturday, and we have 5 more planned for the next 4 weeks. Sabrina and Sabastian Pintos (Mateo and Luana´s siblings) Vicky and Yamila (Two sisters who´s mom is a less active that is coming back!) and another lady named Luisa Denis, who was a reference from a member in the ward. WE ARE SO EXCITED! It is really cool to see what happens when a ward makes a plan and start to get to work. The Lord blesses that ward with miracles! THAT is our latter day call- This is why we were reserved for this day, to gather israel whether it be missionary work, activation, retention, or temple work.  

I know this church is true, the mission has truly made me understand what that means, and I´m excited to keep living the gospel and striving to do the Lord´s will throughout my whole life.

I love you all, have a great week!

Elder Carroll
