An Apostle

"We read in the Bible that the ancient Apostles held the keys of the kingdom. The role of an Apostle today is the same as it was anciently," Elder Bednar said. "An Apostle is a missionary, bearing testimony of the reality and divinity of Jesus Christ in all the world."

REVELATORY EXPERIENCE





We were all in the gym divided into zones to have our
pictures taken with Elder Bednar. Before the
conference he shook the hand of every missionary.

Some of our Elders arrived three hours early so that
they didn't get caught in traffic.

It was a privilege and powerful experience to be taught
by an apostle of the Lord.


Our missionaries outlook and attitude will forever be changed! We were all privileged to have been in his presence.

MISSIONARY WORK




Missionary work is hard. It has never been easy. I suppose it never will be easy..... This work as we all know is a basic and fundamental part of the Church.

A couple of our latest baptisms. The young lady that is shown in the picture is our first Mormon.org baptism. She taught herself and then read the Book of Mormon in a night.

BUZZ WAS AT THE LAUNCH




SPACE SHUTTLE DISCOVERY






Space Shuttle Discover lifts off launch pad 39A atop twin columns of fire, creating rolling clouds of smoke in it's track. We had to visit our sister missionaries in Titusville near Cape Canaveral and so we were able to see the launch. February 24, 2011 at 4:53 pm. It was very exciting.
