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 • February 28th, 2011

so i was in Ljubjana till monday night, then traveled back here! man it was nice to come back to Maribor!

ok so for transfers..... you ready.... well i am staying!! i am so stocked, i love maribor, i hope i never leave. But i think everyone else went somewhere new or got a new companion. (excerpt maribor he kept the same) the sisters are super cool, i am glad they are staying they all wanted to stay but they said if me and my companion go then they dont want to stay! that is what we call team maribor!!! :)

ok so, on wednesday we had our concert... and because we were gone we didnt have any time to practice so we went thru it once and just hoped for the best. Well, remember how i said i had a solo... it was the first song of the concert and i totally tried bailing and giving the solo opportunity to someone else (because everyone in my district is really really good, one sister is pro) but there was pretty much no hope they said i HAD TO! so during practice i totally squeeked, hahaha oh man.... but i still sang my solo part in the concert and did ok.
well about 20 people came up to the koncert, (president came also) and it was awesome. After everyone talked and we had a really good time, also 4 investigators came!!! which is really good. But after the koncert president said that was probably the best mission exsperiance he has ever had... (he really really likes maribor.)

ok so that was good, also we had interviews with him, and he says they can only take 15 mins but i think on average they lasted about 45 mins. I was the last one that he talked to and he pretty much said the sisters and us are doing amazing things up in maribor and that we some of the most exciting missionaries in the mission... he also talked about how my district really respects me as a leader! haha but he also said that the sisters were almost breaking records with all their good numbers. :) so it was good to hear all that!

So this mourning we woke up at 5 and had a sunrise transfer breakfeast! it was super cool, we went to the church and cooked with the sisters.

also... bad news, our 2 best investigators dropped this week..... both!!! that was too bad, but hopefully we can find us some more!

also... good news, today is pday and we had a lesson so that we could go bowling tonight cause tonight is only 1 euro for an hour! so i am stoked to get my bowling game on!!

things are good family!!!
