Hey everyone, well another week as flown by here in Itaboraí. The
highlight of this week were our interviews with our new President. He is a very
powerful leader and influential, and our interview has expanded my vision. He
helped me develop more faith within the time of 20 minutes, and I walked out of
there with more desire, motivation, goals and faith to get more done with what
liitle time I have being a missionary.
We continued to work with J this week and she is coming along
perfectly. She is keeping all the commitements, her faith is growing and shes
making sacrifices to come to church. She came to church yesterday and we also
had a Ward FHE which she attended. The sisters of the ward love her and are
taking her in so lovingly!
I sent some photos this week, we had to pick up lunch from a member who
doesnt live in our area. (the area of the other elders). We had never been there
and we got super lost in the middle of nowhere. But me and my companion love
adventure so we just had a good time taking photos of huge animal bones
This week I also finished the New Testament which I started a few months
back. Its been a privilege to really sit down for the first time in my life and
study the scriptures so thoroughly. I truly enjoyed my study and learned A LOT
about the life and mission of our Savior Jesus Christ. I also really enjoyed
learning about the early church and the history after the death of the Savior.
All comes into perspective when we understand that Christ established his church
with a Prophet, Apostles, Authority and his pure gospel. Shortly after his death
and the death of the apostles, the established church and wards quickly fell
into all sorts of apostasy. That very church which Christ established has been
restored for one final time in this dispensation and we have to privilege to be
members of it.
I love the scriptures. I have a firm testimony of them, and those that want
to know where the truth lies, they can turn to them for answers. True study
brings about true answers.
I love you all, and hope you all have a great week!
Elder Siebers
