I am called of God. My authority is above that of kings of the earth. By revelation I have been selected as a personal representative of the Lord Jesus Christ. He is my master and He has chosen me to represent Him--to stand in His place, to say and do what He Himself would say and do if He personally were ministering to the very people to whom He has sent me. My voice is His voice, and my acts are His acts; my doctrine is His doctrine. My Commission is to do what He wants done; To say what He wants said; to be a living modern witness in word and in deed of the divinity of his great and marvelous Latter-day work. How great is my calling! • My Missionary Commission • Elder Bruce R. McConkie •

LETTER: Elder Schneider • September 27th, 2010

AWWWW!!! so sveto is still dominating it up!! he is so cool, he was taught the word of wisdom, and he said, " well i dont drink to much but me and my friends go out and drink, so next time i will just tell them i cant drink, or just not go with them anymore!!! talk about a humble guy! he is so cool. He is still going strong!

ok so.... only good news this week! well i own in risk again (without cheating)!! haha and so remember how nelson came to Slovenia and blessed it saying the people will listen and bless the people! well i have to tell a secret... i knew it would help out the country but i thought over time we would see a little seccuss!! but that was FALSE!! we are seeing miracles every single day now! every day! I thought we would slowly start growing the church but no... its going to be growing so fast because of that blessing.

We have 3 investigators with a baptismal date! with more to come, and 3 other investigators,
So i will list a couple miracles real quick... one lady that called us last night, drive 2 hours to us, and then couldnt find our church and so she walked around until 8:40, she ended up finding the church and luckily we were there, came in and said she wants more about christ. and set up with us again this week.

Žan a 18 year old kid, siad oh man... i need to be baptisted! haha so we talked about the word of wisdom and we have this "stop smoking program" he said he wants to stop smoking so he can be worthy to live with god. Well we planned on teaching him the program, but yesterday he showed up to the lesson and said i am 3 days without smoking, and i dont need that program! hahaha we were pumped.

We met this guy and he said... you guys talk about god right, sweet can we get together. (which maybe that happens in america but never in slovenia!) haha

Another kid that is 18 walked into church, during sacrament. (he hasnt ever met anyone from the church, he just thought he would stop by!) and so we talked to him after and had a lesson... new investigator. And the best part, is it seems like we are only doing like 100 hours of contacting now rather then 500! haha just cause it seems the investigators are coming to us, wanted this church!

Oh man the mission is alot of fun when you have investigators! haha but besides that i am good, i love maribor, but.... i was missin my friends this week, alot! but everything is good and love you guys!!
ps.. mom happy birthday again, i sent you a little letter this week! :)
pss.. i am going bowling today, and i will dominate! hahaha i am so stoked!
psss... hey dad i will send my memory card home this week or if not, next week! i have another card so i will do that! thanks dad for everything!
