To Bring The World His Truth

Hello Family!

It has been a busy week filled with lots of work. Time has gone by so fast, I can't believe transfers are already upon us (next Wednesday)! We had the wonderful opportunity to attend Stake conference this week with the Fayetteville Stake. We were blessed to be able attend both the Saturday and Sunday sessions. It was by far the most powerful Stake conference I've ever been to. We were able to hear from Elder Robert W. Hymas an Area Seventy, President Stephen D. Posey of the Atlanta, Georgia Temple, and our beloved Fayetteville Stake President George Parker who I have a wonderful opportunity to work alongside and coordinate the missionary work and effort here among the members and GAM missionaries. 

The President's invited all the missionaries to attend and to sing in a missionary choir the children's song, We'll Bring the World His Truth, Army of Helaman. 

We were followed by Elder Hymas who counseled us all as members of the church to hasten the work through our missionary efforts. Further, to obtain the power from on high through making it a priority in our lives to get to the temple! (D&C 109:22-23, 35). It was so powerful, the spirit was so strong further testifying of this important work in the world to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man. We invited and had 5 investigators in attendance during these sessions. Hoorah for Israel!!!

This week entails yet another busy period a head as the work continues to move forward! It is ever so clear, that the lord is hastening in His work. On Thursday I will have an opportunity to attend Zone Leader Council for the month and be taught by Elder M. Keith Giddens of the Quorum of the Seventy who President Harding reports to each week. I am so grateful for the opportunity to learn and observe these mighty, inspired leaders and to hear and feel of their testimonies of the Atonement and Doctrine of Christ.

My love and condolences go out to the St. John family as well as my testimony that Jesus Christ is the relief and way. He loosed the bands of spiritual and physical death that we may return and live as families eternally. He has taken upon Himself all the pains, sicknesses we experience that his bowels maybe filled with mercy that He may know how to succor us when we stand in need.

Love Elder Gautavai
