Elder Isaac Wardle's Mission Letters

This week has been full of Impromptu missionary work, miracles, feeling overwhelmed, not feeling overwhelmed, and it has been great! Highlights:  -incredible jiro ramen -Visiting Gou kyoudai -meeting referrals -church!  -zone conference -President coming to our Sacrament Meeting and joining our lesson! (We got some feedback...) -finding Satou shimai! (Member in Koiwa that another member from my home ward baptized!) READ THIS PART It will have to be short and sweet this week, but through Zone conference, studying the Book of Mormon I have been repeatedly struck with how the Savior blesses his children: the Priesthood! Zone conference was centered around understanding and learning to apply how Priesthood keys, authority, and power can help us in our lives, our families lives, and our missionary work! I would love to invite all of you to pursue and understanding of the differences and applications of these incredible principles! "Behold, O Lord, thou canst do this. We know that t...

Time is short... but missionary work is the best even when it rips me apart! Ive definitely been trying to apply the "when you feel like 10%, give 100% of your 10%" I wish I could accurately give credit to whoever said that because it is awesome. Highlights: -Awesome DCM -incredible lessons  -met with Hao before he moves! -saw some many miracles despite our weakness -Temple P-day This week has lead to to think a lot about humility and comparison. Particularly the humility to talk to everyone. The humility to submit to God's will even when I think I know "better" (I really don't)  I highly reccomend this talk:  https://speeches.byu.edu/ talks/j-b-haws/wrestling-with- comparisons/?highlight= Wrestling+with+comparisons Love you guys!  Elder Wardle

  Salutations! In  fact, another week has passed, and I'm blessed to still be learning quite a bit.  Highlights: -Exchanges with Papel 長老! (forgot pictures sorry) He is so cool! He loves basketball and street racing, and is from the Philipines! -Had some awesome member visits -finally got our shipment of Book of Mormons  -Had indo curry twice -It snowed a lot! READ THIS PART  "O be wise; what can I say more?" (Jacob 6:12) The path to happiness is straight and narrow. The "mists of darkness" or temptations of the world will do everything in their power to make that path confusing, seem difficult, not worth it, or even futile. I can promise you that it is not! The sweetness of the love of God is sweeter than anything else, and must be experienced personally. God has not left us alone to find that happiness! Jesus Christ is literally the light that will dispel darkness and guide us to the love of God if all we will do is turn to him. Sometimes the answer is to simp...

It has been another week! It feels like P-day was yesterday, but there was so much that happened it also feels like it's been two weeks. It's a weird feeling that's been haunting me here in Koiwa... 2 years feels long, but it is also way too short! I've learned so much this week I pray I can concisely share some of it with you.  Highlights: -Awesome DCM about the Book of Mormon -Transfer day (both me and my comp are staying so not too exciting, but the new missionaries in my district are amazing!) -Met some amazing people, and taught some amazing lessons! -Best Fast Sunday I have ever had!  READ THIS PART Please read Elder Bednar's "They Are Their Own Judges" from October 2025 in conjunction with Alma 40-42 if you are wondering about Judgment or agency (freedom to choose) I have always been a little confused when I read scriptures on the condemnation of the wicked. Thinking, "Why would a loving Heavenly Father send so many of His children to earth, kn...
