CRAZY PREPARATION DAY!

So, today has been absolutely NUTS, so, just a VERY QUICK EMAIL!!! I didn't really EVER mention anything ABOUT my Companions!!!!!! Elder Mose is a Somoan who was born in New Zealand, but has lived in Sydney for the last 7 years. He went to the MTC in New Zealand, so, he and I actually were on the SAME flight to Adelaide, so, Elder Mose and I have been here in Adleaide for the EXACT SAME AMOUNT OF TIME!!!! Elder Matekohi is a COMPLETELY different story! He is actually in his FINAL 2 WEEKS!!!! He is ALSO from New Zealand, and is a New Zealander THROUGH AND THROUGH!!!!!!! I LOVE BOTH OF THOSE ELDERS!!!!!!! I am actually in the City of Adelaide itself, so, imagine Salt Lake City times 100, and everybody in NON-MORMON. That is where I am CONSTANTLY serving. I go out, and I talk and talk and talk ALL DAY LONG! IT'S WONDERFUL!!!!!! Just to let you know, Dave's Baptism is on May 1st, but I won't be doing the Baptism, CHEN-WEI WILL BE BAPTIZING DAVE!!!!! Yes, the same Chen-Wei that I baptized on April 3rd will be BAPTIZING not even a MONTH LATER!!!!! I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy for him. THE LORD WORKS MIRACLES! I love ALL of you, and hope that if you need ANYTHING, you email me, and I will pray and converse with the Lord, Jesus Christ with ALL of my heart and soul because I walk with Jesus Christ EVERYDAY!!!!! Next Monday is a Specialized Training, so, Preparation Day will be next Tuesday again. Then, MOTHER'S DAY SKYPE!!!!!! CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE ALL OF YOU, and GOD BLESS THOSE WHO ARE IN HIS FOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love, From Down Under,

Elder Connor E. Bennion

Great Week!

Well, it has actually only been 3 days since I last talked to most of you, but it's of course AMAZING what can happen in just three days. In case I have not mentioned before, I am in the actual City of Adelaide, so we meet A LOT of people, but unfortunately, most of them don't stick. We are having a LOT of one lessoners. So, if you could pray for the success of actually KEEPING our Investigators, that would be AWESOME! Otherwise, Dave is on Date for May 1st, and seems like there are NO WORRIES! I could get my Second Baptism because DAVE AND I ARE TIGHT! I LOVE DAVE!!!!! We had Stake Conference, and I'll tell you, AUSTRALIA definitely is NOT UTAH! These Stakes are SO SMALL!!!! But, otherwise, I don't really have ANYTHING TO TELL YOU! SORRY!!!!!! I've ALWAYS KNOWN THAT I AM AN AWFUL EMAILER!!!!!!! Hope you all have a FANTASTIC WEEK, and if you need ANYTHING shoot me an email, and we'll see what I can do!!!!

Love, From Down Under,

I know this will get my family.

Today we went to the Temple, so THAT IS WHY I am writing on Thursday. I do get to email, AGAIN on Monday, so, THAT'LL BE AWESOME, but, let me inform you on what happened INSIDE THE TEMPLE, and INSIDE of me that makes Missionary Work the MIRACLE it is. Today while in the Temple (Without revealing too much) sitting in the Celestial Room on the couch, there was some space, and I knew as soon as I cleared my mind that a man had sat down next to me, but his arm around me, and told me that everything was going to be alright. When I looked over, nobody was there, but I KNEW more than ANYTHING THAT I HAVE EVER KNOWN BEFORE that Reed Harris Walker had just sat down next to me, and was reminding me that EVERY STEP I HAVE TAKEN HERE IN AUSTRALIA, SO HAD HE! Sitting next to him, hand in hand, was his Eternal Companion, Phyllis Marilyn Call Walker. It was not only the 3 of us on that couch, but ALSO Jan Owen Bennion, and Joyce Bennion Luker. I WALK WITH THE POWER AND AUTHORITY OF ANGELS! Than why should I fear? I testify with the STRONGEST, MOST PURE WITNESS, that the Veil between Heaven and Earth, is practically NON-EXISTANT in the Temple. Attend the Temple. Attend the Temple. Attend the Temple, and my Spirit, and my love will be with you, more than EVER before! I LOVE ALL OF YOU, and know, that we will just be apart, for but a Season.
