GENERAL CONFERENCE!!! (yah origional name;D)

This week has flown. Im not going to lie. I miss Elder Burgess. I love that guy so much, and am excited to see him again after the mission. Elder Bean is really great though too. And get this..... HIS DAD WORKS AT IM FLASH TOO!!!!!!! Dad do you know a John Bean? He works in the Intel Management part of the plant I believe, but If you've met him, that would be so cool!!!!:D


Can I also just say.... I LOVE GENERAL CONFERENCE!!!!!

Honestly, that talk about acting and going to the rescue without waiting for meetings to do anything really spoke loudly to me. I have seen that so much in the mission. Even when there are meetings, most things don't happen until someone take the initiative and acts! Go find people to teach. Go inspire others. People like to follow an example more than head it all off. Really interesting concept. Take Initiative!

Can I also just say that there were a TON of talks about the Temple. It pretty important. Yall should go soon:D
Well, we have visited a ton of people and had a bunch of cool charlas. The big problem is still getting people to come to church. I find that one of satan's biggest tools is Idleness. It is completely unnecessary, doesn't help anyone or even bring any happiness. I haven't heard anyone say with an honest smile on their face that they lay around the house all day. Then why do many do it? True happiness comes when we step outside of our comfort zones in the direction of God. I can promise you that at where we are now, the kingdom of God would not be within most of our comfort zones. That is our goal, what we strive daily to work towards, becoming comfortable in the presence of God 

DandC 121:45 Let thy bowels also be full of charity towards all men, and to the household of faith, and let virtue garnish thy thoughts unceasingly; then shall thy confidence wax strong in the presence of God; and the doctrine of the priesthood shall distil upon thy soul as the dews from heaven. 

People just need to act.

We found this really cool lady this week named Carola and put a baptisimal date with her for the 30 of April. Please pray for her to receive desires to act. To be baptised, she must come to church for the 3 hours the next 3 sundays. She can totally do it, but she just needs to act!

We also found a cool new that is friends with a super active member. Her name is Jesica and we have a charla with her this Tuesday in the which the member will be coming with us. Im  stoked for that. 

The gospel is so perfect, just follow it and you will see. All questions can and will be answered if you are faithful and ACT! 

  • Doctrine and Covenants 50:24

    24 That which is of God is light; and he that receiveth light, and continueth in God, receiveth more light; and that light groweth brighter and brighter until the perfect day.
 Its a cool promise. Well I've got to go now, but I love yall so much. If you can just remember these people In your prayers it would be much appreciated. Jesica and Erica, other Jesica, Luis, Hanible, Beatrix, family Machado (investigators), Edgar Portugal, Loreley, Mabel Jara, and all the active members of the Branch in Lascano to have incredibly spiritual missionary experiences. 


Have a great day!!!!!!
Elder Eliason 

Oh, by the way, Did I tell yall that Brother Machado has a cloudy eye and looks like nick furry. Between elder been and me, we refer to him as such. haha we actually told him that the other day and he died laughing

so just a funny thought from your other email. How's life?
I taught one of my latino comps that that's what one says when they feel awkward and don't know what else to say. Hahaha I totally forgot I used to say it all the time

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!:D
