Tanner's testimony

There is a missionary here and his name is Elder Busby and we wanna find out if we’re related, he's from Utah but has some family in Arizona, he said that his family is from England and his great grandfathers name is: George Melvin Busby.

As for the district leader duties it's really not that hard but I am having a little hard time with one thing, and that is how I'm gonna be able train at district meetings. It's not the actual getting up and doing it but it's the material I have to do it on. The reason is because it is on something completely new that the Brethren just created: the Simplified Curriculum, it isn't replacing Preach My Gospel, Preach My Gospel is the sleigh that has all the toys, and the Simplified Curriculum is the 8 reindeer that deliver it to all the boys and girls. In fact this week was loaded with awesome stuff and a landmark event. This week all of the District Leaders, Zone Leaders, and new Trainers went to a 3 day training conference where we were trained by the Assistants and President Collins on the new way missionary work is going to be done. I will say this much: the days of Aug 4-6 at this conference were the most spiritually powerful days in my life. In this extremely short amount of time the Holy Ghost taught us to trust him and it was done with great power, he made himself known to us and gave myself an experience that I will never be able or would want to deny. At the beginning we were all promised that the Holy Ghost would be with us for those 3 days and he was. At the end we were promised that by the time we sang the closing hymn : "The Spirit of God" the fire would burn, and it did. It did it with such power, such warmth, such peace, and such assuredly. I know that the Simplified Curriculum is the next level of missionary work that we have been waiting for, I know that it is revelation given to a prophet from God, I know that the gospel will flood the earth like no other because of administering to the one, and I know that the Holy Ghost is a member of the God head as is Jesus Christ, and God the Father, and I know that "the standard of truth has been erected, no unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing, persecutions may rage, mobs may combine, army's may assemble and calamity may defame but the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly, and independent, until it has penetrated every continent, visited every clime swept every country and sounded in every ear, til the purposes of God shall be accomplished and the great Jehovah shall say the work is done."

Trust God. Be strong. Do missionary work. All else will be taken care of. I love you all and this is what i know to be of God.
