♦ Elder Miller week 47 (7-10-23)

 Bon dia tur hende!


Crazy another week is here! Hope all is well with each of you! This week was a quick one with a fast trip to Aruba to mix it up in the middle!

Zone conference was super good! In our mission we are putting a big emphasis on working with the members because they can connect with the people we teach in a way we can't! It was way fun flying over to Aruba with all the Curaçao and Bonaire missionaries!

Hope your 4th of July was good! Being out here has made me appreciate America so much! We are so blessed! I was crossing my fingers we would get some fireworks that night but we couldn't see any. It's okay because it was Flag Day here awhile ago and there were a few fireworks.

Not too much more to report on. We are working with our friend Osmaila and helping here get ready for her baptism on the 22nd of the month!

One scripture I read last week that I really liked was in The Book of Mormon...
Alma 37:34
34 Teach them to never be weary of good works, but to be meek and lowly in heart; for such shall find rest to their soul

When Jesus Christ walked the earth, he 'went about doing good' (Acts 10:38). I love how that verse in the book of Alma says we will find rest by looking outward. That is so true. Charity, or the pure love of Christ will bring true joy in a world that is becoming ever more selfish. I invite each of us to look out this week and see whose burden can be lifted. It'll make their day, but I bet It'll make yours too!

Have a great week! Enjoy summer time!

 continuing  1/1/23 Response page 103   Jan 1 st Glad you got a fireworks show.  I had brought a bunch of glow in the dark stuff to McCall for the big ring in the new year and totally spaced getting it out- maybe I’ll save it for fourth of July Fasting anytime is hard but on a mission I bet it is especially hard because you can’ t nap away part of it- but where there’s an increase of faith there’s an increase of blessings and I hope you felt good after your day of fasting to consecrate this new year…. I’m glad you could see more of your island working on the area book.  The Lord won’t forget the people you don’t get to see because of your bike situation.  Still might be good to mention to a ZL or someone- just an awareness you have of those people—you never know when a mission gets more cars- and the need proceeds that (maybe you won’t get a car, but you might eventually get more areas- more missionaries to cover them) Jan 2 You aren’t d...

  Elder Miller, MTC graduate, top honors You are on your way! You did it! Home MTC ☒    Provo MTC ☒    Complete first transfer with companion ☒   Board plane for mission ☒       You’ve been so ready for today, preparing for these 6 mtc weeks, preparing since primary, preparing since before the world was… the Lord needs you now exactly where he’s sending you.   It is amazing to think of the light you’ll share and how it will change people forever—what a ripple effect—it’s so awesome. I am sure you are feeling a little nervous too- but you are very good at hard things—and you can do this.   You have already set the tone for your missionary service and we are so proud of your effort, your diligence, your ability to lead and love and be Christlike.   You will have a lot to learn from your trainer- and he doesn’t have to be a dream comp to teach you what the Lord wants you to know. I hope he is- but just know- you set y...
