This Gospel is Simple but so Amazing

Alright so here's the situation... during the week things are pretty slow and full of service!! But then when the weekend comes around things pick up and stuff happens!!!

So during the week we went to an orchard for some service again and raked up a ton of branches so that was fun but not really what I wanted to talk about this week. What I want to talk about is what went on over the weekend... so I'll start with Thursday.

On Thursday we went over to our investigators home with our district leader and he interviewed them and found them worthy to enter into the waters of baptism.  It was so cool to see them progress to this point and I'm not gonna lie I was a bit worried about the word of wisdom because they love their coffee but everything was ok!!  It went perfectly!!  

So now let's fast forward to Saturday, the day of the baptism.  It was a really awesome baptism.  It's cool because they lived in another area around Kalispell then moved down here to Bigfork.  So at the baptism they had members from both wards that loved them that were able to attend.  It was so awesome because we had lots of missionaries attend as well and you could really feel the spirit as the meeting went on and it was so amazing to watch them be baptized by that proper priesthood authority that was restored through the prophet Joseph smith.  These two are truly converted to the gospel.  They love it with all their heart and they are going to be amazing members of the church.

Alright so I've talked a little bit about this but as converts are baptized instead of being confirmed right then and there after the baptism they are confirmed the next Sunday.  Well they asked Elder Anderson and myself to do that for them... I've never confirmed someone before and given them the Holy Ghost and so this was a first for me.  But the spirit that I felt as I bestowed the gift of the Holy Ghost onto someone else is indescribable.  I was giving someone a member of the godhead as a constant companion.  That's not something that can be described with words.  

After that our recent convert received the priesthood last Sunday, so this week he was able to prepare and bless the sacrament and it was awesome being able to watch him do it.  The past little bit I have felt so blessed to be a part of these people's lives.  It has been a wonderfully humbling experience to help them come unto Christ like they have.  Any missionary could have been sent here but the Lord decided to put me here and I'm so grateful for it and for everything I've been able to learn.  This gospel is simple but so amazing.  I love it so much!!

Love,

Elder Zeller
