Mother's day 5-11-2026

Well well if it ain't another week. A glorious one if I might add because it was Mother's Day. Shout out to all of the moms and future mothers out there. Woman hold the greatest influence out there and the biggest one for sure is my own mother. She is the best!! She taught me all the good I know. She is an example to me of what a true mother in every sense is. She is one who raised 4 boys 5 if you count my father. God bless you Mom I love you. This past week I have had a lot of special experience, but also a lot of up and downs. Can't expect anything less. This past week our on date friend came to church! He is 16 loves boxing and football. Good kid who loves God. His grandmother is a returning member so the ward is so excited! I got to minister to my Friend and Recent convert in Vienna from almost a year ago who is preparing to go through the Temple! We talked for an hour and 40 minutes over the phone. I have also had the special privilege to lead over two sisters serving in vienna where I was struggling a year ago. It's special to me because I have been exactly where they are with the same struggles and I understand. God sometimes lets us struggle and suffer so that we can bless others and lead others safely home and be there for them. I have been able to counsel with the both of them on multiple occasions given their companionship struggles and with their area. God bless these two sisters the lord loves and trusts them so so much. I have the birds eye view. That is why motherhood is so sacred. They have a birds eye view of us youngins growing up and they see what we don't yet they are patient and long-suffering in helping us to become. God bless all of you mothers everywhere! I love you all! Yes even if you aren't a mom or my mom I still love ya! Stay Sweet-Elder Williams
