Elder Parker Wilson: Week 91 Ecuador

Elder Coleman is off to the great USA while I carry on in the labor of the Lord with my new companion, Elder Cottòn from Guatemala. He has 9 months and is the luckiest kid ever to start off as a Zone Leader with me because we are going to complete the goal this month and eat lunch with President Riggins!! I`ve been fighting for this the past year and I`m so excited because the potential is there. Sad that Elder Coleman won`t be here to see all of his great work pay off. ...moment of silence ... Ok! Yea, we`re still going to carry on with the baptisms of Juan and Daniel this Saturday, two great future priesthood holders for the church. Fun to see their progress.

We did go out with a bang though. Pres. Riggins asked us to go to a Stake Presidency Mtng and teach the Presidents and Bishops the importance of retaining Recent Converts and Less-active members using a new format called the IPM, following their progress up to 1 year. Great learning experience for me and always fun to work with church leaders to see how the church is really run. So crazy to see how revelation comes down from the Prophet himself or the 12 Apostles through the 70`s, mission presidents, stake presidents ... straight to us! I know this truly is the church of Jesus Christ and He leads it.

Keep praying that we can find ´God`s Chosen people` and guard them away in the Stakes and Temples with immovable testimonies of Jesus Christ, whom we love and serve.

Love to you all, Elder Wilson
