Lehi's Dream

Hello Everyone,

  First of all, you all probably think my companion and I are fat from all the pictures of food that we send, in our defense, I will tell you that you just can't get this kind of food in Idaho. A few pounds just may be worth the experience ;) We traveled quite a bit this week for exchanges, District Meetings, then had to get an oil change on the van and then some more things were wrong with it so it had to stay at in the shop for longer than anticipated, just a lot of these menial things! But we were still able to see quite a few people this week, I'll tell ya about a few:

   We met with the Baldassarra's family, they said they have been struggling to feel the Spirit that past month and they have not been to Church, and have stopped reading their scriptures and praying together each day. So they recognized the need for change, and when we came over we studied 1 Nephi 8, Lehi's dream with them. It was a really good lesson, the kids who are 14 and 10 were really getting it, and figuring out what they needed to do to start feeling better in their lives! We had a great discussion with them about holding fast to the word of God, which means studying the written word of ancient and modern prophets daily, praying diligently daily, and coming to Church to partake of the fruit (The Sacrament) and hear the spoken word weekly. Really hope they continue to increase in their desire to repent, Brother Baldassarra is struggling with smoking again, it's a tough one to overcome! I know that if he tries his hardest to quit, the Lord will give him divine aid, or grace, to overcome his weakness.

   Went on an exchange in Sterling Heights this week with Elder Bagley, he's a farm boy from Victor Idaho! Great missionary, I was happy to work with him. We went out to go finding at the end of the evening, we knocked on this door at about 8:15pm and a young adult woman opened and we started talking with her, asking questions about her religious background and things like that and it turns out she had a lot of questions herself about God and how to know which path to follow in life. She talked about knowing that following God was right, but that with so many people around her, the media, music, almost all of them dismissing the fact that God even exists, and that if they say that He does exist most of them don't do anything about it to change their behavior! She struggles to know where she stands and which direction to take in her life. There are a lot of voices in the world today trying to blind us spiritually and deafen our ears to the Gospel! She described I believe, what Lehi saw in his dream, 1 Nephi 8:21-23
"And I saw numberless concourses of people, many of whom were pressing forward, that they might obtain the path which led unto the tree by which I stood. And it came to pass that they did come forth, and commence in the path which led to the tree. And it came to pass that there arose a mist of darkness; yea, even an exceedingly great mist of darkness, insomuch that they who had commenced in the path did lose their way, that they wandered off and were lost."
We were able to testify to her that God in His infinite mercy and love for all of His children has restored His truth to the Earth once more in these latter days, and that this Church and this Gospel is what she is searching for. It never ceases to amaze me being an eyewitness of the truthfulness of this scripture in D&C 123:12 "For there are many yet on the earth among all sects, parties, and denominations, who are blinded by the subtle craftiness of men, whereby they lie in wait to deceive, and who are only kept from the truth because they know not where to find it—"

   I know that there are many souls within our individual reach who also fulfill this scripture. May we seek them out and help bring them to the knowledge of the truth is my desire for all of us. I'll do it here in Detroit, you do it wherever you may be. I love you all so much! I'm grateful for my mission and the plethora of experiences I have had that have allowed me to know, of a  surety, that Our Redeemer does live today, and that He speaks and acts through His living Prophets. Have an amazing week!

Yep, some more food. Soul Food, that is. Catfish and Mac n' Cheese :) :) :)

Talk with EVERYONE!!

Hello Family and Friends,

We had a great week!! On Sunday a youth named Ben Price came up to us at Church and told us that he needed to set up an appointment to go with us to see this girl that he used to go to school with to teach her about The Book of Mormon! We set it up and went with him, it was really great, she's very sincere, with little to no background in religion. Ready to learn and apply what we teach. She is amazing! 
   Another miracle that happened was a member referred us to his neighbor who was a member of the remnant Church! We went and helped him out with some spring cleaning in his garage and talked/taught as we did so. We were able to clear up some misconceptions about what The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believes and practices, and the Why's behind why we do, and he was very interested! Said he even wanted to attend Church with us this next week! He was a cool, it'll be neat to help bring him to the light of the fullness of The Gospel. Interesting thing about him though he said, "First and foremost in my faith is Joseph Smith, I follow him, I know He is a Prophet." Elder Ferguson and I commented to each other about how that is probably where a lot of the break off Churches went wrong, they started worshiping or idolizing the Prophet instead of recognizing him as an instrument or mouthpiece for our Savior Jesus Christ. He is the first in foremost in MY faith, I can't imagine it not being that way. 
   Something pretty funny/interesting that happened this week was just yesterday morning, hahaha so funny, here it is: SO we had an appointment set up with this lady named Verna on Sundaymorning at 11am. We get a call from her that morning during personal study and she said, "I've decided to go with the Islam faith, you don't need to come over today." So we told her to check outmormon.org and that we hope we could see her another time. We had just set up this appointment with her last Wednesday or something, we thought that was a pretty dramatic change of course direction for her in only 4 days! Hahaha then we get another call 15 minutes after that first call, and it's Verna again! She says, "I went to mormon.org right after we got off the phone and I felt there was truth there, how can I get a Book of Mormon??" So we ask her if we could come for our original appointment time at 11am and she said yes! So we saw her, taught The Restoration, and she just threw down TONS of questions, deep ones too! She didn't just want to know what we believed but why we believed it. It all made sense to her, and we are seeing her again soon. The Holy Ghost worked quickly with her as she accepted our invitation to check out the website, and now she's on a journey to learn the truth for herself! 
   I know the Lord works mighty miracles as we exercise faith and diligence! I'm grateful for the experiences I've had on my mission and exhort any of you who question whether or not to serve, to do so. But first, ask God if you should. Then read the Prophet's exhortations to do so, especially you young men. Then recognize the blessings you've received because of The Gospel in your life. After that it will be an easy call. After you have experienced the soothing balm of The Atonement of Jesus Christ, and the peace that comes from living His teachings, the natural response is to share it with others. I love this Gospel and this work! It truly is the very work of God upon the face of the Earth.
   I've changed a lot on my mission and will continue too! I'm grateful for the opportunity I have to serve.

Great Week with a Great Companion!!!

Hello Family and Friends,

I love Elder Ferguson! He is a stud! So happy to be serving with him. Missionary companionships thrive when both companions have the same goal, "immortality and the Eternal Life of man." When they are both focused on that goal, then our thoughts, actions, and desires are in harmony with each other and with God. So even with our differences in interests, the way we were raised back home, etc., we can be tools in the hands of God together! 
   One evening this week we went on splits with some members of the High Priest Group here in Livonia and I went with the Stake Patriarch! It was a great experience, it's amazing to be with someone who has lived the Gospel their whole life and whose very being resembles that of our Savior Jesus Christ. Such strong faith, many Christlike Attributes developed, those are the people you are just drawn to and you want to be around! My Mom is one of those kinds of people too. Full of love and charity, kindness, gentleness, goodness, and faith. I'm glad I was able to go out and work with him!
   We met one of our investigators Shane's wife this week. We talked with her through the door and she expressed how the last few years of her life have been super rough, her Mom passes away fairly abruptly, major family problems and concerns, just some really difficult times and trials she's been through lately. We asked her about her relationship with God, she said she was mad at Him at times, but that she wants to mend her relationship with him. We read Matthew 11:28-30 with her, and asked her what it would mean to her if she could have Christ lift her burdens. While shedding tears she exclaimed that that would be wonderful! Incredible! It would mean the world to her if she could just go one day without experiencing the searing emotional and spiritual anguish of the loss of one's Mother. We are going back soon to show her the Plan of Happiness that God has for us. Imagine how many people that YOU know, who may be carrying around these sort of burdens! I think most people have them, rarely do they make them known unto us though. And they do not know that Christ can bind up and heal their so personal wounds; Spiritual, Emotional, Physical, no matter the nature of the infirmity, Jesus Christ can run to one's aid, and cover them with his healing grace. 
   On Saturday evening Elder Ferguson and I had an appointment cancel and we had about an hour and a half to go tracting. But then we get a text! It was a referral from a member in Arizona! He knew this woman that lives in our area through work at Hewlett Packard. They've never met in person of course, but this lady expressed some personal concerns to this member in AZ, and he taught her about the Restoration of Christ's Gospel and Church. About salvation for the dead, and all of God's children! We prayed and asked if we should go contact the referral right then that night, and we felt positive about it. So we went and had an amazing experience with her!! She's going through so much right now, any type of stress you could think of, she's felt it over the past year or so. The anguish she has experienced is something only The Savior could know how to relieve. To add to the story, both Elder Ferguson and I prayed that very morning that we would be sent to one of God's elect children, who will be willing to act on the Gospel message we share. She is so sincere and seeking for the truth, we're so excited to continue teaching her and seeing her progress in the Gospel.
   There were other miracles that happened this week but I don't have time to tell you about them!! This is The Lord's work. He directs it, and if we are faithful and diligent, he will make us tools in His hands. I testify of each of your ability to bring others to a knowledge of the truth! You can facilitate incredible changes in peoples' lives by helping them receive the restored Gospel! All you must do is be willing to talk with all those that you meet. Develop relationships of trust and love with others, and pretty soon they will start to ask you questions like, "what makes you different??" "Why are you so happy??" or "What would you do in this situation in my life?" These opportunities will surely come to all who have desires to be a part of The Lord's work. (D&C 4)
   I love you all!! Please let me know about the missionary experiences each of you have! I hope you all feel The Savior's love this week.

New Companion and the best Companion, the Holy Ghost!

Hello friends and Family,

My new companion is Elder Ferguson! He's a stud, I love him already. We work well together! We actually served around each other in the Ypsilanti ward so it's not like I'm getting to know a brand new person. I'm looking forward to the time I get to spend with him. We had a busy week administratively with transfers and all that jazz. But we were still able to work in our area a bit so we were happy about that. A couple of experiences that stick out in my mind from this last week: 
   We went tracting Tuesday evening, it was about 8:45pm. We went somewhere close to our apartment and discovered some streets we didn't even know were there before! So we felt prompted to go down a certain one and we see this Father outside with his son on the driveway. We go up to talk with him and he is a super friendly guy. Says he's Catholic and that he's not looking to change so we asked him if he knew anybody who may be struggling in their life right now who we could go uplift. He said the first thought that came to mind was a house a ways down the street on the corner. So we go back to contact this referral in a couple of days and this lady answers the door. She answers it by saying something to the effect of: "It has been a crazy day! I'm fried! Gimme the word!" Hahahahahaha not a Detroiter or anything just a woman willing to hear the word of God. So we taught her the Restoration! You could tell her gears were turning as we discussed the reality of Christ's original Church on the Earth today. Set up a return appointment with her for this Tuesday. If we always talk with everyone and ask them for referrals whether they're interested or not, The Lord provides us with people who have been prepared to receive the Gospel.
   Another happened Sunday evening at about 8pm. We chose a spot to go tracting as impressed by the Spirit and as we arrived I realized that I had never been to this place in our area before! It was kind of a hidden street, tucked away in the foliage surrounding a canal. Elder Ferguson says as we walk up to the first house, "These people are going to let us in! We are going to teach them The Restoration." We had faith and knocked on the door. This guy and his young daughter (probably about 10 years old) answered. We explained what we were sharing and started to teach them a little bit. The daughter was feeling the Spirit and you could see it on her face!! Such a big smile and a longing look towards her Dad, as if her spirit was saying, "let them in. What they have to share is good, and right!" However her Dad rejected the offer to learn more. We even re-asked him if he was interested in 2 other different ways. He still said he would like to pass. After he did this, his daughter piped up and said, "Your going to regret this Dad! They're trying to talk to you about Jesus more and you won't let them! Why not?? I can't handle this!" And she left, embarrassed for her Father's response. I then had a prompting to testify to him that his daughter had felt the Spirit and that God wanted him to hear us out, and that it would bring great blessings o his family. However I shrunk from this prompting! He said goodbye and as we left the door I felt this feeling of emptiness enter my heart and I asked God if He would like us to go back and give him one more shot, to try to "enter in by another way" as Alma of old was commanded. I didn't have a strong impression to do so and Elder Ferguson didn't feel strongly that we should either so we started to drive away to our next appointment. About halfway to our appointment I reasoned within my mind, that ALL good things come from God. Would I think of myself to go back and talk with this man again and try to convince him by the power of the Spirit that he should listen to our message?? Maybe, but even so, that is a GOOD THING. Therefore, it is of God. So I said, "We need to go back. We did, and as he opened the door I said, "Long time no see George!" and I explained that we didn't feel that we gave him enough information for him to make an informed decision whether to accept or reject our offer. We testified to him that his daughter had felt The Holy Ghost, and that the restored Gospel would bless his life. I felt the Spirit strongly right then, assuring me that we had made the right choice and that that original prompting to come back was of God. I know he felt the Spirit at that moment as well, as his countenance softened and he accepted to study and pray about the Restoration pamphlet that we gave him. We gave him our number and offered to help him with some yardwork he had to do and he said he would call us! 
   I know that if we follow the promptings of the Spirit courageously, then God will back us up with HIS power. I love The Lord and His work! May we all follow Him and the promptings He so freely gives us.

BEST WEEK OF MY MISSION SO FAR!!!!!

Hello Everyone,

Sooooooo many miracles this week, I come to the end of it so humble and grateful to Heavenly Father for the great opportunities He gave is Elder Whetzel's last week in the mission. I'll give you a brief explanation of most of the miracles we experienced this week: 
   So first of all we were able to find 7 new investigators this week, all from tracting! A few of them we found on the first door that we knocked. We prayed in faith that God would lead us to His children who would receive us, and he surely did. 
   On Monday we met a woman named Kiaera, we shared the family proclamation with her! She just got married about a year ago and she said that after she was married things have started to fall into place in her life. We helped her realize that these things "falling into place" were blessings from God for keeping his commandment to be married!! We are meeting with her and her husband again this week.
   On Tuesday morning we met up with this couple that we set an appointment with but we didn't think they were super solid, honestly we expected the appointment to fall through! But we felt that we should go to it. So we did, and they ended up being pretty solid!! They are struggling to raise their kids in the world today, they have teenagers and they don't know how to protect them against the world. We taught them The Restoration, and She especially felt that what we shared is the answer to her concerns and struggles in life. She really understood the Priesthood well! It was amazing to see them light up as we taught them, they gained hope that there is a way for they to help their children be in the world, but not of the world.
   On Wednesday we knocked some doors in the afternoon and we ran into this man named Shane. He told us he used to live next to a Mormon just a few miles away! He said his name was Michael Ogden! We told him that we know Brother Ogden very well (he is our ward mission leader)!!! So then we set up another appointment with him two days later and Brother Ogden came with us, it was great! Shane's friend Joshua came out of the house about a quarter of the way through The Restoration and he jumped right in! He explained how he has been feeling that something is missing in all the Churches in the world, and was very interested especially in our claim that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the Original Church that Christ organized when He was here. We came back a couple days later and taught him about the Book of Mormon. POWERFUL lesson, I've never seen someone in my mission so competent and quick to understand the message that we share, and so eager to know for himself from God if it is true. So then we set up another appointment with him two days later and Brother Ogden came with us, it was great! 
   On Thursday the first door we knocked this brotha named Jeremy answered the door super sleepy, telling us he just woke up! But we started to teach him about The Restoration, about halfway through he was awake! And he invited us in. We finished teaching him and asked him to pray, he did. Afterwards we asked if he received an answer! He said, "I received the answer before I even prayed! It's the reason why I let you guys in, while we were talking at the door I felt that what you had to share was important and true." I've attached a picture of Elder Whetzel and Jeremy, he's the African-American guy! Such a sweet experience.
   Then on Sunday, Marcus was baptized! We've been teaching him for a while now, and he was ready to make that commitment to God! It was a great experience, I felt the "power of godliness made manifest" as Marcus entered the water and came up again, clean and pure before God. I've attached a picture of us with him right before he got baptized. 
   I know this is the work of The Lord. We can become a part of it, if we will exercise our faith and experiment upon His word. May we be eager participants instead of spectators on the sidelines of the Hastening of His work, is my prayer for all of us.

A Week Full of Miracles and Blessings

Hello Family and Friends,

This week was wonderful, I felt Heavenly Father's sincere love and care for each of His children as we were out and about the work.The subject says it all, we were witnesses and participants in multiple miracles, I'll share as much as I've got time for!!

So first off, William Lomas and Rao Olibiri, two of our Recent Converts here in Livonia have been out teaching with us a lot! It's so incredible to see their progress in the Gospel. When we first met Rao, he didn't even know who God was, or what Jesus Christ had accomplished for him. William had a brief Christian background, but almost everything was new for him too. But now they both teach The Gospel with confidence, and their testimonies have grown so much since their Baptisms. So that was a huge blessing that I was able to experience this week, just to be out teaching with Recent Converts, they really get it you know?? They've caught the vision of The Gospel and they want to share it with others. We came over to teach Rao one of his new member lessons and he had brought a friend over for us to teach! That's the type of fire that the Gospel will light in you as you really understand and live it. 
   
I went on exchange with a District Leader this week, his name is Elder Hansen! He's a great guy, from Ashton, Idaho. We felt inspired to tract at this certain place so we got there, prayed in faith that God would help us find people to teach that morning, and then we went out to work. The FIRST person we saw was a woman helping her kids get their seatbelts buckled. We struck up a conversation with her as her head was still in the car and then she looked at us and said, "Weren't you guys at my house looking for my boyfriend the other day?" And then her face became familiar to me and I remembered who she was! Her and her boyfriend live just a few blocks away and we taught her boyfriend about prayer a couple of months ago. He was interested but his schedule is unpredictable so we couldn't set up another time to meet. We tried by him just last week and this woman that we were talking with on exchange answered the door and was kinda freaked out that we knew her boyfriend's name! Anyways, we got talking with her and she's just super skeptical about God and wants proof of his reality and so we taught her as much as we could, but she had to leave (she was just over at a friend's house getting done babysitting). So we set up another time to meet with them this week. Heavenly Father is sending us to this family from all angles! 

Another miracle - A lot of this is straight out of my journal: This was last Wednesday evening. We get to this member family named the Eaton's apartment for a dinner at 5:30pm, but the Brother Eaton wasn't home from work yet so we couldn't go inside. So we were about to get back into the car to make some calls and take care of some business, but Elder Whetzel spots this Indian guy leaning up against his car in the parking lot smoking a cigarrette. He says, "Let's go talk to him." I agree and we go! He tells us his name is Arush (Uh-Roosh), he's from India but he just graduated from Boston University with a degree in Finance. He just moved out here to Michigan for a job and he doesn't know a single person outside of work! All his family is back in India. We just kept talking with him, about his religious background and stuff, he says he was raised Catholic, but that he hadn't been to Church in forever but that he prayed every night, and that helped him feel like he wasn't alone. Then Brother Eaton pulls into a parking space and we wave him over to us. He comes and starts talking with Arush, turns out they do basically the exact same thing at work as financial analysts! I then asked Arush, "Do you have any plans for dinner tonight?" He says "Nope!" Brother Eaton picks up on it and says "Well let me call my wife and see if she made enough food for all of us then!" Of course she did, and so we had dinner with Arush at the Eatons! As we talked we found out that he played 3 sports on the collegiate level, it was Cricket, Squash, and Golf! He's a Scratch golfer so he's pretty good, Elder Whetzel LOVES golf so they really connected there. We taught him about how God is Our Loving Heavenly Father and how he can make his prayers more sincere, he loved it! He had never thought of God as his father before. Just a super awesome guy, and an amazing miracle. If we fail to talk with ALL THOSE around us, we may be missing the very person who God was placing in our path. 

I love you all so much! Have an amazing Easter Week! Check out https://www.mormon.org/easter to watch a new Easter Video that the Church just put out and to study the timeline of the Saviors last week of His mortal ministry. I pray that we all keep Jesus Christ at the forefront of our minds, and let his teachings govern our words and actions. I'm grateful for him and infinite sacrifice He made for each one of us. Without Him, we are nothing. But with Him, we can accomplish everything.

"It's been a minute with Elder Whetzel"

Dear Family and Friends,

As they would say in Detroit, "It's been a minute with Elder Whetzel!" That could literally mean a minute, could mean weeks, months, or years! The statement "I ain't been to Church in a minute" definitely requires a follow up clarifying question :) It's been a while with Elder Whetzel, and we still like each other! It's a miracle! I'll miss him when he goes home in a couple of weeks.

   As for the week, it was a good one :) Didn't go all as we expected, but we had many great experiences. First off, we went on exchange with some Zone Leaders in the Roseville area (their whole area is Detroit). I actually was working with Elder Ferguson for the day, we served around each other in Ypsilanti 8 months ago, I love him! He's a great man. Anyways, We drove down streets where both sides were filled with houses that were abandoned, boarded up, I even saw one with this huge tree that had fallen into it! Trash all over the yards and streets, it's just so different from anywhere else I've ever been in my life!  I should've taken my camera down there but I forgot!! Sorry about that Mom :) I won't forget next time! But the people there are AMAZING. So humble and such strong faith in Jesus Christ, and most all of them are willing to listen to you if you're talking about Him. We had a super cool experience as we were biking that I'll share: 

   First you've gotta understand that in Detroit the people just walk across the main roads, forget the crosswalk! They just choose a pace when they start across the road and go all the way through. We call it "the Detroit walk." Much better than simple jaywalking. So we see this guy come out of a Dollar Tree and take a Detroit walk across the street and he ends up a little ways in front of us on our bikes. So we catch up to him and stop to talk! You could tell he was a little surprised two guys in white shirts and ties were riding their bikes and stopped to talk with him, but he kept talking with us! So we get off our bikes and just start walking with him, we walk a little ways and we end up on his front porch and we start to teach him The Gospel. He expressed that he's had family members pass away and he wanted to feel peace in his life. He had attended Churches in his youth but had never really applied what he learned. We discussed The Plan of Salvation with him, and his eyes were opened, it was amazing! He was just intrigued the whole time as we talked about our (his) purpose in life, and where we came from. We testified of Jesus Christ and His Saving and Redeeming power that is available to each of us, and that He made it possible for us to live with our families again. We taught about Baptism, and how as we are Baptized we gain full access to that Atonement that He made for us. He was feeling like he needed to be perfect to be baptized but we assured him that neither of us were perfect and that all we are required to do is strive to be perfect. He was still unsure about baptism when we invited him to pray at the end of the lesson. He prayed and offered a very sincere, simple prayer. He didn't even ask if he should be Baptized, he just thanked Heavenly Father for the knowledge that he gained as we talked with him. We sat there pondering after the prayer for about 15 seconds and he says under his breath, "That's crazy." We said "What's crazy?" He replied, "My life just flashed before my eyes... I think I need to be baptized. Yes, I need to be baptized!" We were so grateful that Heavenly Father heard and answered His simple prayer, and showed him his next step in his spiritual growth. 

   In our area a similar thing happened, Elder Whetzel and another missionary stopped to talk with someone who was just getting in their car in their driveway to leave (Elder Whetzel and his companion were just walking down the street). But he talked with them and they said they'd be back in about 20 minutes and that he could talk with his girlfriend at the door. So they did! They talked with her and of course she thought it was pretty awkward and it held her back from opening up and discussing her feelings. But the guy that got into his car came back in 20 minutes as he promised, and they shared The Family Proclamation with them. We've come back and taught their family (Kevin & Sami are dating, and their 4 year old daughter named Courtney) 3 times now. They are doing so well!! And they said that they "love having us over." Of course that is because they feel the Spirit when we are with them. We've taught them about who God really is, and how they can communicate with Him as individuals and as a couple. We love them so much! We hope they will keep their commitments and progress towards Baptism.

Remember all of this came to be because we stopped to talk with someone that God placed in our path. How many times do we pass those opportunities up? How often does God place someone in our path, or place us in someone else's path to share the Gospel with them, and we shrink from the responsibility? I think it's more often than not unfortunately! But I know that as I've come to know that on my mission, I will not make those same mistakes when I get back home! I will talk with everyone, and teach everyone. And surely as we all act in faith and share the Gospel with all those around us, The Lord will trust us enough to place people in our paths who are ready to receive it.

OH! I almost forgot to tell you all, Rao Olibiri and William Lomas, two of our Recent Converts here in Livonia both went to the Temple last Saturday and were Baptized for their Fathers!! Isn't that just the greatest thing?? I love them so much :) I'm so happy they were able to go experience The Spirit in the Temple.

I love representing the Savior, who is the light, the life, and the hope of the world. May we all share his perfect Gospel with those around us this Easter Season. 

A super easy way to do that is to share this video with them on FollowHim.mormon.org, or posting #Hallelujah on your Social Media sites. Check it out! And don't be afraid to share it with friends, neighbors, and strangers God has placed in your path. 

I love you all!! I hope you have a wonderful week :)

I found our street!!!
