I addition to the love, compassion and service that Ellyn has shared with her fellow human beings for the last 10 months, this is the message that she shares every day:
Our message is remarkable and simple. God is our Father. We are His children. We are part of His family. He loves us. From the beginning of the world, He has followed a pattern of love and concern. Many times He has reached out in love to reveal the gospel of Jesus Christ so that His children can know how to return to Him. He revealed it to prophets such as Adam, Noah, Abraham, and Moses. But people have repeatedly chosen to reject that gospel. Two thousand years ago, Jesus Christ Himself taught His gospel and established His Church, and accomplished the Atonement. Incredibly, people even rejected Jesus. Whenever people disregard or distort true doctrines and ordinances, God withdraws His authority to administer the Church.
Our invitation to you and all people is to add to the truths you already treasure. Consider our evidence that our Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus Christ, have again reached out to God’s children in love and revealed the fullness of the gospel to a prophet. This prophet’s name is Joseph Smith. The evidence of this glorious truth is found in a book—the Book of Mormon—which you can read, ponder, and pray about. If you pray with a sincere heart, with real intent and faith in Christ, God will tell you by the power of the Holy Ghost that it is true.
Hello to all my peeps out there,
Well, I'm going to be transferred again. Yep. I'm gonna miss my companion like crazy..
She and I have had an amazing run! We both just want to work and do
what Heavenly Father has in store for us. And guess what?! We've seen
so many miracles! Like, forrealsies. One of them being my ghetto
accent is getting really good. She has been a very good critiquer and
helped me be better and better at it! Also, I am a very good Philly
driver now.
But let's get real.
This week we have seen our work go sky high and
it's crazy! That's why we're getting split up. It's cuz we're doing
too good! haha. We taught a young man yesterday. We asked him why he thought we
came. He said "because I'm on the less active list" and we said "can
we make a correction to what you've said? We are not here because you
are less active. We are here so that you can see the blessing of the
Atonement in your life." I know that the suffering the Christ did for
us made it possible for me to feel happy and take the anxieties of
life away. That's what Jesus Christ has done for us. And everything
else. We want him to see that and feel that in his life. We don't want
it to just be an idea but a reality in his life.
AND...There's an old Swedish man that we are teaching. He said something funny,
"I don't drink...THAT much" haha. He's 82 and he teases us like no other! He is looking for
truth and his purpose in life. He asked those questions to others but
was never answered. We all want to know that but it seems it takes a
while to find it. He's found his answers though:) I'm excited for him.
The message that we share can answer all the questions that you have had in
your heart, forever. I have full confidence in that. :)
I am so grateful for this work. If you have questions about what I do,
just shoot me an email! ellyn.adams@myldsmail.net
I'd love to help you out :)
This work is true! While the world lies and runs in circles, this
message is true! This Gospel is true! :)
Love, Sister Adams
