JayLynn E. Loves: November 2024

Another week down in the vineyard and nothing too special happened this week other than a lot of hard work, eating sweet pineapple and watermelon!!

One of the mission couples here recently shared how we need to focus on doing the things that are in our control. We can't always control having a baptism or finding people to teach but we can do the littles things in our control.

Lately I've been trying to stay consistent working harder, being grateful, making my study and prayers more meaningful. I know this is not much but I have noticed a huge difference of happiness in my life from doing these small things.

This past week me and my companion met with this guy named Salesi. After meeting he had told us he'd like to learn about the Gospel... Turns out he just wanted to tell us why the Gospel is not true. He was questioning lots of stuff, some things I couldn't awnser but that is because the Gospel of Jesus Christ is simple. I didn't come here to awnser evey persons questions but to share 5 things: Faith, Repentance, Baptism, receiving the Gift of the Holy Ghost, and Enduring to the End.

Jesus Christ created his Church so all could have Eternal Life. Not just for those with a great knowledge of the Bible or scripture.

Although there will be many that will not except it this is a reminder to not be doubtful of your knowledge of the Simple Gospel of Jesus Christ. With that said I do encourage you, to expound your knowledge and understanding of the Gospel, reading and studying scripture. I know that may seem easier said then done in the busy life we all live but I promise there are many blessings from doing so.

Last night us missionaries in Haapai held a musical fireside in the Village Faleloa. The theme was missionary work. It ended up going really well. The spirit was strong, great talks and beautiful music. There were lots of children and a couple of them told me how they cant wait to go on a mission. It reminded me the example us missionaries are to them.

Coming on a mission has changed my life and I only want for others to expirence and have these blessings.

Love and miss you all. Ofa atu - Elder Wolfgramm
