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 3rd, 2011

conferance was so good!! i loved it!

This week i was with a Croatian elder, it was way cool. He is a younger missionary, he has been out for 4 months. Its amazing to see how much i have changed since the time i came on my mission. hahahahaha i just laugh when i think of how different i do missionary work. hahaha good times.

Well we almost got a baptismal date for sebaštjan this week, he is so so so close he is just having some troubles, but he said he will be baptised, he just wouldnt commit to a date. My companion asked him to be baptised so that was cool.

This week was way good, i heard from matt meyers!! i miss that kid!

So... i dont know really what so say, we worked hard and tried some new finding ideas, taught some really good lessons, and learned alot! haha that is about it. oh we taught this lady that believed in India stuff like cow gods and weird stuff like that. hahaha

Also we went to go visit an investigator and one of his uncles was at his house and his uncle was like, "i have to show you guys something" and he showed us this youtube video and it talked about how we dont need god to forgive us, but we just need to forgive ourselves. hahahaha it was really funny, i told him that is not the case and that repentance doesnt work like that. And i never argue when people want to argue i just give them a chance to accept truth. Well i showed him that it just doesnt work like that and the mom was listening in on the conversation and she was like literally cheering us on, cause she knew that the uncles ideas were totally wrong. hahaha it was a very interesting exspeciance. haha

Love you family!

ps..Tell andrew i miss the little guy! And then when i get home he has to hang out with me!
