Nina, Dina's sister, is worried about the second marriage of her sister. And ofcourse a lot of concern of Eliza Pancakes about her former husband.

Kylian: Really, Timothy?
Timothy: Yes, she is done and clear. We are very thankful
Kylian: We will add you guys to the list. Do you have someone who needs attention besides Katrina?
Timothy: Let's also pray for Rohan&Faith Elderberry since they are also expecting twins soon.
Kylian: Alright. I don't have anything special to mention. Then we have both Leo and Timothy who have had their four years of service. So we need two new church elders.

Leo: It was a plesure to serve our church
Timothy: I was very thankful to be able to do this despite all things happening with Lydia.

I may be a false prophet. I have been fooled before.
'Whether you're a sinner or a saint, God rains down on the just and the unjust ALL the same. Don't give up. The Almighty Creators ways are not our ways.'..I am just a bigger sinner than most, if you will look straight forward, they have me sitting in the front seat of the classroom.'-Rev. Dr. James Jacob Showers Jr.-Archbishop: Universal Life Church Monastery independent minister.

Brothers and Sisters, you may want to reconfirm my entries. The Boss may not take kindly to any form of corruption, and definitely any form of the (7) seven deadly sins. I think I read that somewhere!!

REFUTING THE SO CALLED 'BIBLICAL' ARGUMENTS FOR POLYGAMY
Duke Jeyaraj Two years ago we uploaded this video on our Youtube calling Polygamy a sin. Here it is: Someone who watched this video put this pro-polygamy comment which I reproduce in full: Add a comment…To those questioning God’s approval of polygamy, let’s see what the Bible says. Abraham was a polygamist. Jacob, who later was renamed Israel (from whom the 12 tribes of Israel came) was a…

The Biggest Frustration & Hurdle to Leap as a Digital Ministry
Digital ministries are beset with a myriad of challenges but when I think about the most difficult thing I've had to face in my two years in full-time digital ministries, the answer is easy:
Digital ministries are beset with a myriad of challenges. Ever-changing technology, high-level skillsets, creative thinking, long hours, fighting algorithms, making high-quality, competitive content, counselling and community building through text, following up with vulnerable viewers, and more… but when I think about the most difficult thing I’ve had to face in my two years in full-time digital…

Testimony after 21-Day Prayer Vigil Participation in Korea
According to the FFWPU International HQ: “This personal story testifies to the spiritual power of the ongoing special prayer conditions being established by elders and other members in Korea.”
https://familyfedihq.org/2022/09/testimony-after-21-day-prayer-vigil-participation-in-korea/
By Marilyn Angelucci September 2022
In April after the CIG Leaders Meeting my husband stayed at HJ Cheon Won to participate in the Evening Prayer Vigil at Cheon Shim Won for 21 Days. I was happy and supported his decision. We needed this kind of investment to break through in the Middle East. After dedicating ourselves for eight years, we needed to make more progress and create substantial results.
When he returned after 21 Days, I was impressed with how he had changed. He was more loving and understanding and had a deeper heart towards me and the members. I could understand the value of the Vigil Prayer and was happy to join him every day when he participated online. We had a good experience sharing our desperate heart and even had a few experiences where the spirit world directly answered our prayers.
In August we were invited to the 10th Anniversary of True Father’s Ascension, so we were going to Korea. My husband asked me if I wanted to stay with him for 21 Days to join the Prayer Vigil after our program and I was happy to participate. I was a little worried that it would be too difficult physically and that I wouldn’t be able to continue for so long, but I wanted to join with him, so I agreed.
I was so surprised at how much grace I received from Heaven after attending over even a few days. Because we had wonderful interpretation into English, I could understand all the testimonies and then felt very inspired to join the one-hour prayer. It was amazing to hear the desperate prayers of our elders. They have been praying every night for over 580 days with their whole heart and soul. I gained so respect for them. Also, to witness the deep unity between Dr. Lee in Korea, Mr. Tokuno in Japan and Dr. Kim in the USA moved my heart. Over the years it was not so often that we saw such unity, and this gave me hope and inspiration that the spiritual would trust us and move even more. I sincerely felt the gates of heaven were opening and that miracles are happening.
Sometimes the shouting bothered me, but I realized that when I joined in my heart could open. After supporting the strong, loud prayers of my elders, my heart felt moved and I could pray very deeply, silently but sincerely. I experienced how this method of strong, desperate prayer helped me to break through something and I could open my heart. Then I could feel True Mother’s heart and all she has suffered because of her determination to save us and all her children. I could feel her love and desperation and amazing devotion over all the years and that now is the time of great hope. Tremendous joy filled my heart even now remembering those experiences. I know deeply that we are in a new age.
I had many experiences of feeling God’s grace, but I just want to share two. I have suffered with congested sinuses since the end of last year and couldn’t find any relieve. At night I couldn’t sleep and often woke up because I couldn’t breathe. I wrote a Hyo Jeong Offering Paper and prayed strongly to Hyo Jin Nim to help me with this. Immediately after this the spirit world started to work to help me. The counseling team asked me if I needed any support and made an appointment for ansu for me. Quickly I could feel some relief and they continued to support me, individually in their center, at the changyang [singing] session and also during the Prayer Vigil. I am so grateful for their total dedication to help all of us unconditionally. Mr. Kim explained that my problem came from my lungs actually and that is where I should focus.
One day we had the opportunity to go to the Small Prayer Hall of Dae Mo Nim to pray. As soon as I sat in front of Heung Jin Nim’s picture I could feel something heavy in my chest like a spirit blocking by breathing. I remembered times before at HJ Cheon Won when this happened before also. I prayed desperately to release this spirit and with the help of HJN I believe it was released. Since then, my sinuses and breathing has improved and clears up more each day.
Also, my knees and legs have always been a problem since the 1990s and finally I could get the full treatment of ansu on both of them. I can feel that the energy and blood is flowing well again and as they recover from the treatment, I feel more power. I am so grateful for the support and dedication of the Counseling Team especially Mrs. Kim and Mr. Kim.
I feel strongly that whoever comes here with a desire to find answers or to solve personal issues, the solutions will come. Truly the gates of heaven are opened, and Heaven hears our prayer through the grace of Cheon Shim Won. With that help of the spiritual world, especially with our True Father there, we have the possibility of creating miracles. We need to trust, pray desperately and move and then Heaven will be with us and we will make miracles.
Thank you, Dr. Lee for being so faithful and sacrificing everything to keep this prayer going and giving us the chance to change ourselves and find the answers to our prayers.
I have come here many times over the years and have seen positive results. But now it is different. In the past it took at least 40 days or more to find one answer to cure one problem. Now in one ansu session, or more for a severe case, we can see results. I am watching many brothers and sisters here that are solving major issues in just a few days’ time.
As an elder member, sometimes I wonder, will I ever really bring substantial results for the providence? We have invested in many countries and many missions but what really have we left behind?  Now I have confidence that through the prayers at Cheon Shim Won we can find the right people, the resources we need and finally create the miracles Heavenly Parent and True Parents are waiting for.

ALL TBOM ELDERS + all canon information on them
I am making this to help out anyone who is writing fanfics or drawing fan art of The Book Of Mormon and wants to draw the elders accurately or keep them in character. I will involve all lines from each character + their fandom given first name and other small things that indicate their personality or traits. I will also state the animal they brought up in I Am Africa since I believe the animals do reflect their personalities in some way.
Elder Church
Tumblr media
- Elder “James” Church
- Given the name James by the fandom
- OBC actor: Brian Sears
- Comes from Cheyenne, Wyoming
- When he was young his parents were in an abusive relationship, with his alcoholic father abusing him and his mother
- “Okay, okay, HOLD ON! I mean… We COULD… SAY that we had some baptisms” Is the elder that suggests lying about how many baptisms district 9 has achieved
- “We were SO worried about you” Is the first elder that tells Kevin they were SO worried about him when he fell asleep at the bus station
- In I Am Africa he sings “(with) The Noble Lion King”
- In I Am Africa he also sings “A tribal woman who doesn’t wear a bra”
Elder Michaels
Tumblr media
- Elder “Michael” Michaels
- Given the name Mike by the fandom
- OBC actor: Clark Johnsen
- Comes from Provo
Elder Thomas
(I could not find a photo of him, please accept this photo of the actor as an offering)
Tumblr media
- Elder “Chris” Thomas
- Also goes by Elder Poptarts
- Given the name Chris by the fandom
- OBC actor: Scott Barnhardt
- His sister died from cancer and he was unable to say goodbye since he was at the apple store in line for a new iphone. Her last words were “Where is my brother”
- “You, too?! I had the hell dream after I accidentally read a Playboy!” Had his first hell dream after accidentally reading a playboy
- “Well, somebody needs to tell that General Butt-F-ing Named that people should be free to do what they want!” Is the elder that gives Kevin the idea of speaking to the general.
- In I Am Africa he sings “(with) The meerkat”. A lot of the fandom compares him to being like a meerkat
Elder Davis
Same thing, take this photo of him (right) standing next to Andrew Rannells (left)
Tumblr media
- Elder “Robert” David
- Given the name Robert by the fandom
- OBC actor: Jason Michael Snow
- Is the first elder to ask if Elder McKinley is okay when he is panicking about the mission president
- “Elder Cunningham we must always work in PAIRS. Remember?” Is the first elder to complain about Arnold and Kevin arguing before being shut down by Elder McKinley
- “Looks like you fell asleep at the bus station!” (to Kevin after SMHD)
Elder Schrader
Tumblr media
- Elder “Brian” Schrader
- Given the name Brian by the fandom
- OBC actor: Benjamin Schrader
- Please note that he isn’t called Elder Schrader in every performance, he sometimes takes the last name of the actor that plays him since he is named after Benjamin Schrader, his OBC actor
- “Are you an IDIOT?! MORMONS don’t LIE!” could come across as him being outspoken + rude personality wise
- In I Am Africa he sings “With the rhino”
Elder Neeley
Same thing AGAIN. Have a photo him (left) standing next to Jason Michael Snow (right)
Tumblr media
- Elder “Ted” Neeley
- Given the name Ted by the fandom
- OBC actor: Kevin Duda
- “I told a lie once when I was twelve, and I had a dream that I went to hell! It was REALLY SPOOKY.” Had his first hell dream after telling a lie when he was 12
- “Yeah, we have to go home!” “But the mission president said we’re all as far from the Latter-Day Saints as it gets!” Seems to be the elder that wants to go home most after being shunned by the mission president
Elder Zelder
I scoured the internet and found no photos of him at all this is all I got sorry guys
Tumblr media
- Elder “Elder” Zelder
- Given this name by the fandom, frequently referred to as an alien. I assume this is due to him having fewer lines compared to the other elders. People joke that Elder Zelder is his full name
- OBC actor: Justin Botton
- In I Am Africa he sings “(we are) A monkey with a banana”
PAIRINGS
Here is a photo of the chalk board that lists the pairings of all the elders:
Tumblr media
If you can’t read it,
Elder McKinley + Elder Thomas
Elder Zelder + Elder Michaels
Elder Neeley + Elder Schrader
Elder Church + Elder Davis
also it’s a good example of Elder Schrader’s name changing based on the actor portraying him!!
Thank you for reading my little infodump, I did this mostly for myself but I would be happy to know that other people found this helpful!!
