Steele Robinson, from the Pickett's Mill congregation, has been asked to serve and teach God's children about Jesus Christ in the Peru Chiclayo mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Steele said this about his mission: "I'm looking forward for the opportunity to devote my time to serving God and to share the joy of the gospel. I'm hoping that through my service I, too, will be brought joy in my life."

Steele also said this, "A scripture that will help me as I serve is the scripture from my missionary plaque: Ether 12:4- "Wherefore, whoso believeth in God might with surety hope for a better world, yea, even a place at the right hand of God, which hope cometh of faith, maketh an anchor to the souls of men, which would make them sure and steadfast, always abounding in good works, being led to glorify God.'"

We were so blessed to hear Katelyn McLeod, from the Cedarcrest congregation, share her testimony of Jesus Christ and her journey of discovering for herself that God was leading her to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. ❤

She shared the joy and gratitude she feels for that decision and the blessings it has brought to her and her family. We are grateful for her beautiful testimony and the love she has for her Savior.

Claire Scharnhorst, from the Rome congregation, has been asked to teach God's children in the Brazil Joao Pessoa mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Claire said, "The thing I am looking forward to most on my mission is meeting the people. When I think of the things that matter most to me in this world, they are people. I can’t wait to meet, love, and serve the people of Brazil."

"I’ve always liked D&C 6:36, which says, “look unto me in every thought; doubt not, fear not.” I know I’ll have very high highs and very low lows on my mission and this scripture grounds me and reminds me that God has a plan for everyone and a special plan for me."

Annika Laubert, from the Pickett's Mill congregation, returned home from her service in the Uruguay Montevideo mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Annika tells about a memorable teaching experience she had on her mission: "Our friend Mia is the 10 year-old daughter of a less active member. Before I got to the area, the sister missionaries had been teaching her for like a month and weren't able to help her attend church and get baptized. During my second visit with her, however, the sister training leaders were with us (4 missionaries in total) and I felt prompted to explain the protection of baptism to the mom. We testified of the power covenants have to shield us against the attacks of Satan and the Spirit confirmed our words. During that lesson Mia decided she wanted to be baptized and her mom wholeheartedly supported her."

Annika said, "Throughout my mission my relationship with Jesus Christ has been strengthened and fortified in ways I never could have imagined. I gained a personal testimony of His role as my Savior and Redeemer. He is aware of me and of the people I interact with everyday. The way that I learned that for myself, however, is not a magical life hack, rather it's the primary answers we've always known. Prayer, scripture study, keeping the commandments and in turn our covenants, and repenting daily. When we decide that we want to deepen our personal discipleship and devotion to the Lord, the desires of our hearts gradually change and our will becomes consumed in His. We do not need a plaque to say that we are a representative of Jesus Christ. " Therefore, if ye have desires to serve God ye are called to the work;".

"My post-mission plans involve returning to BYU Provo to continue my studies in mechanical engineering this fall and continuing serving the Lord where He calls me."
