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 • November 29th, 2010

Hi family!!! i love the pictures!! thanks, first off... dad i am sorry about your face! haha i hated getting out my wisdom teeth, but thats good you got them out at such a young age!!!! hahaha oh man, second off... i finelly got the package!!! haha good choice of candy, but i should have takin a picture of the package when i got it! i was in 2 pieces and held together by tape! hahaha it looked like you guys left it in the rain for 2 days then thru it in a fire and decided to throw it against the cement a couple times! haha but everything servived and i loved it. So thanks!! third off, i am not sure what we are doing for phone calls this year, i will keep you posted! fourth off, dad you can just send me adris emails and i should have time to read them! thanks.

so.... i could hardly wait to tell you the great news!!!!! so guess who found a FAMILY of 5!!! woot woot!! not even kidding, its so exciting cause it is my first family i have ever taught. Cause in Slovenia almost nobody gets married and if they get married they dont have kids and if by some chance they get married and have kids then they dont want religion!!!! haha so its a totally miracle that we have a chance with a family! well its amazing how it worked out, cause we were lost trying to find their house and so we walked around in a snowy storm for like 45 mins. And a lady says, hey are you guys looking for the andrej family! and we were like yes!!!!! hahaha so we had a lesson with them and they are so good, the dad is normal and has a good job (which is way wierd in slovenia) then we were just talking to him and his family and he was like... welll i want to follow Christ but i think the doctrines have been changed!!! and we were like yess..... its because they were changed but god restored his truth!!! he loved it!!! he said he will read the whole book of mormon and whats to keep getting with us!!! oh man it was so exciting!!!

ok well funny story for you, well this week we had thanksgiving and me and my comp were trying to buy a turkey! haha well we go to the store and we finelly found a turkey but the lables were in german... but it was like 25 bucks and it was really small! but since we are dumb and wanted a turkey, we bought it! so we didnt know how to cook a turkey but we tried. So everything was good but after it was cook we started to slice and cut it! And the meat was black... not because we burnt it but because it was actually a goose. So we actually got punkd (ps. dad and mom if you dont know what punkd means, its means you got tricked) and bought a 25 dollar skinny goose and we didnt know cause the lables were in German. It actually wasnt too bad, it was just a little greesier and not as favorful. But all is good and thanks for everything.

love you family!!!

pss. thanks celeste for the emails and for the letter you sent in moms and dads package!!
