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 Brayden Schneider • October 18th, 2010

Ok good that makes me feel better that you didnt send a big package! its so not worth it, one sister got a $90 package.

So Vegas sounded fun! how were grandpa and grandma doing? I thought about it, and grandma and grandpa need to know how important the Jesus Christ is! so we need to baptise them!! (haha i hope they read this) :)

Ok so.... my first baptism went so well!! Franjo (a member) baptisted him. I have a picture of me trying on his pants that i need to send you! We had to get his pants specialy made. He is a huge guy! But we practice the baptism prayer with him about 1000 times, he would always mix up the words, but during the baptism he did perfect! So Sveto (our new member now) did so good. After the baptism he shared his testimony, and said he had been looking for the Christs church for 35 years and he knows he found it! And listen to this, so every time he came to church he would wear sandles and army pants, but he showed up in a nice suit! He is such a good guy, he said now that he is a member he needs to starts looking like one! But he is going to help out the church tons.
So we had to set up the pool and warm it up and take it down! it was so fun, i will have pictures for you next week! I am sorry i totally forgot to bring my camera.

Sorry it is a shorter email this week. Everything is good though!
ps... dad you she maribor is near austria, yes it is very close we can actually take a bus to austria. And yes, they dont speak the best slovenian! haha they add german words, and croatians words all the time! i know how to say "time" in 4 different laungauges!
