September went by so incredibly fast. Honestly I dont even remember much of what happened. I guess it flew by so fast that I almost missed it.
This last week held some special opportunities. On Thursday, we had a special zone conference with Elder Ellis of the Quorum of the Seventy. It was a very good meeting. I was able to feel and learn a lot throughout the whole thing. Elder Ellis taught about faith. He taught a lot about faith. He talked about why we have it, the different levels of it, how it is used and how it is developed. It was very good and of course essential for us as missionaries and for those that we teach.
On Friday, we also had the opportunity to go to the temple with some of the members of the branch. It was an awesome experience as going to the temple always is. If you want to feel close to the Lord and our Heavenly Father, there is no better place to go. Something that I have learned since coming on my mission is the power that going to the temple with questions in mind has. Taking the time a couple of days before to really ponder about what direction you need from the Lord is well worth it. I have learned that there is no better place to find answers than by going to the temple.
Other that that I dont really have to much to report on for the week. I'm glad to hear that everyone seems to be doing so well. The blessings of the Lord are great to those who follow Him and listen to Him. This weekend is General Conference which is special for us to be able to listen to living prophets who really know Christ.
Make it a great week and enjoy conference!
Love
Elder Phong Manhardt
