HAVING FAITH IN CHRIST BRINGS MIRACLES...

I recently wrote Trevor a letter, and in that letter I had told him about one of our friends that passed away. I had mentioned to him how grateful I was to have the gospel in my life. How comforting it is to know that we will see our loved ones again and that God has a great plan for us. The thought of not having the gospel in my life and losing a loved one must be a horrible feeling... The following is part of his response to my letter:


"Its kinda crazy you brought that up cuz I have thought alot about that this last week. We run into so many people that don't even know who god or our savior is. It breaks my heart, and a couple of the people we are teaching have just recently had loved ones passed away within the last week. It's so hard to teach people the plan that our heavenly father has for us but yet I'm so grateful for the opportunity to teach them this. It's sad to me that most of the people here have hardened hearts. They slam the door on us, curse and throw stuff at us. I guess I just don't understand, but having faith in Christ brings miracles."


I am so grateful for Elder Schroeder and all the other missionaries out in the mission field. Who are serving the Lord and sharing the gospel with others. Elder Schroeder could not have said it any better ... "HAVING FAITH IN CHRIST BRINGS MIRACLES"

**Elder Schroeder's first baptism will be Saturday, January 11.**
