Originally written 02.14.2017, with changes.
At Oakwood Restoration Branch I was administered to for a urinary infection and healed instantly.
Elder Ron Saylor wrote me a letter in response to my letter to him telling me that one day I would see my need for baptism.
In 2005 I wrote to God in red ink, these words:
Ok, I am ready to listen. What should I do to prepare for Zion?
I heard, or thought I heard (whether I answered myself or it was God it does not matter now) "Move to Missouri".
After that I almost immediately started to pack and I made the proper preparations for the move, and Grandma Marge and I made the 900-mile drive to the land of Zion. Grandma Marge dropped me off at Joy and Cecil Soper's house in the fall of 2005. I started attending Israel's Gathering of the Church of Jesus Christ, Independent Restoration Branches. Soon afterwards, my uncle Ken Soper, who was then an Aaronic Priest, convinced Joy to attend the very first Conference of Restoration Branches at Stone Church in Independence, Missouri. I was not yet baptized, so I did not have voice or vote. Joy is Ken's mother. Since I really did not understand the magnitude of what was going on, I left the building during Conference Assembled and took a walk out on the Temple Lot. Although someone I trusted tried talking me out of it, soon afterwards I was baptized the first time November 20, 2005 and confirmed the first time on the same date, both at Israel's Gathering. Uncle Ken baptized me and Howard Hubert Smith and Cecil Owen Soper confirmed me. Cecil Soper was the spokesman. One of the things Cecil said during the confirmation prayer was "It is not a gift until you receive it." The first time I truly received the Gift of the Holy Ghost was on May 18, 2022 at 10:02 PM at my apartment in Oak Grove, Missouri, by the laying on of the hands of one of the Three Nephites after my Second Baptism. The first time I felt the Holy Spirit of God was when I got my first Book of Mormon Testimony after reading a couple of times (I had never read it all the way through the first time I lived in Michigan). This testimony is confirmed by many, many Scriptural and archaeological witnesses.
I attended several more JCRB Conferences in which I had voice once, vote as a Member several times and was an alternate at least once and a delegate once., for which I am very thankful to God. I also was present at the first District Organization meeting of the Independence District and was a member of the Independence District until 2009, and I am also very thankful for this. I witnessed the Gospel preached at the Conference with the power and authority of God, and also was witness to fresh revelation from heaven, starting in 2006 with Marlin Guin's Inspired Message to the Whole Church.
In Summer of 2006 I received my first Patriarchal Blessing from Patriarch Milo M. Burnett. Teacher Dean Gray drove me to his house in Logan, Iowa from woodbine Reunion Grounds in Little Sioux, Iowa, Followers of Christ Reunion., and Milo laid his hands upon me and gave me the blessing.
Later, back in Missouri, while I yet lived with Joy and Cecil the first time, I received my first Inspired Version testimony, and felt the Holy Spirit in the same way as I had with my first Book of Mormon testimony. There are at least two witnesses in the Scriptures, the DC, that confirm this Testimony, and many witnesses in the Church Fathers.
In 2009 I moved back to Michigan to say goodbye to my dying grandmother, then in 2005 God called me back to Zion in an audible voice in 2015.
While yet in Michigan the second time, I laid the Commandments and Covenants by Rick D. Leonard and the Book of Doctrine and Covenants (to 144) side-by-side on the dining room table. I got on my knees and raised my hands to heaven and asked God if the Doctrine and Covenants was true. I got nothing. Then I asked if the Commandments and Covenants was true. Again, nothing. Then I asked if both together were true. I felt a strong, strong, strong deep burning in my bosom. This Testimony has a witness in Joseph Smith's Sermons and some witnesses in the Doctrine and Covenants.

SATURDAY-SABBATH
Around 10:28 CST I distinctly heard in a nearly audible voice, "Move for awhile" as I lay in bed.
It was at a time where I lived at Joy and Cecil's house the second time, and I was contemplating moving into an apartment.

In the beginning we Knew we could help you and you could help us. and we could all (double underlined) enjoy tHe blessings we would Receive From God TO have each other in each others lives. From recieving these Gifts God was Giving US. But as it turns out you Brent always Gave yourself an excuse a way out of any thing you ever do that is not right. Some of which are "Im sorry" "I dont know how" "everyone sins" "Ill do better", these are only some of your cop outs that In your head
(PAGE 2)
you Knew you Could sAy TO us .But mostly to yourself So you . Could continue to Behave any way you Choose (double underlined) to . I know For a fact that God chose NOT Create you Brent or anyone in Such a way that they do Not know the difference Between right and wrong even the Crazyiest person knows and mAkes the Choice to do right or wrong. they are aware of mAking that Choice.
We In this Family tried so hard even every different way to help you . But day After day AFter day was Always the Same thing you had an excuse why it was ok that you made your wrong Choice. which you do Brent have control over what Choices you mAke.
But you always In your head have give yourselF an
(PAGE 3)
excuse or reason to mAke It ok For yourself to do what ever it is you want to do, an excuse to mAke it ok in your head. "Your sick," your retarded," what ever the excuse is . dosnt matter. you put it there to mAke it so you can continue to be able to do what you want. God gave you a chance to Live in Zion NOW (double underlined) Brent.
every Chance God gave you to do work (double underlined) For Him (double underlined), you didn't want to do it. y He Gave you a Chance to do For others , But you didnt want to, so you complained and complained , made others Feel Bad For even asking For your help.
He Gave me that Same Job to do in Florida. to help Larry's mom. I did these very same Jobs. For her. But I was So excited Because I knew I was

Being used and was doing a sevice For my Lord and Savoir
I was so happy that God Gave me a Chance to do something For him. When She died I was Sooo Sad Because I could No longer do the Jobs God Gave me to help her. I thought In my head my Job was over and I cryed Because I thought I had Nothing I Could do For god any more. Then he Brought me here to mous missouri and there he gave me so many Jobs to do for him. I was so happy I Never dreamed he would have put me in a place where I Could be used and have so many things to do for him (double underlined).
(PAGE 5)
Brent he gave you these Same oppertunities to start your Blessings with him but you rejected every th thing he put in your Path to help you to Be in Zion. and every thing he tried to bless you with. every Gift he tried to give you.
that Brent is why we are Sad, mad, and disappointed.
But God Says to us Now.
Its time to move on its time to dust oFf your Sandles and move on.
Im Sorry For you Brent
I do hope And pray you can that God can reach you so you can Respond to his Calling. I do Brent whis wis hope to see you there in Zion. I hope you Can heed to his call.

LORD'S DAY-SABAOTH-SUNDAY
If God has faith, surely the Saints of God must always have faith to live in His Presence, even throughout eternity. (LOF 1:15B;4:1B)
Sermon notes:
Call to worship: Revelation 21 (AMP) Elder Kenny Soper
I am making all things new- I AM
The Holy City.
Speaker: Robert Thompson II
Scripture reading: Alma 17:35-36 RLDS
Mt. 18:21-34
Lk. 17:12-19
Lk. 7:40-50
What really came out of these parables is that the natural man will focus on the gift and not the giver. Even though two out of three of the parables had to do with money and debt, this has nothing to do with money or debt, but the love of God, and our focus, and response of thanksgiving, praise and unworthiness. Sometimes we don't recognize what God is doing in our lives....
