Street soccer with the elders

By Elder Zach Seager -


I got to play soccer this week in the soccer cage!  It was so fun and made me miss the Battlin Bear boys!!!! I megged three elders and now they call me Messi.

My favorite story this week is about Einstein.  So Einstein is at a conference with all of the top scientists in the world.  He is asked a question about whether he believes in God.  He puts his watch on the table and takes it completely apart and lays all the components and every little part on the table.  He asks the scientists if they think in 10,000 years if it is possible for all these parts to go back into the watch.  They all say no not without help.  He then says how do you think the earth was formed?  It is too perfect for us and all the creatures to live here.  There has to be a higher power.

Another part I liked this week was about the Ricciardi Letter.  It's pretty cool go search it and read it.  My favorite part of the letter is where it says "If you want to punch Satan in the mouth then open your mouth and preach."

I taught a lesson about the Sabbath Day in Spanish.  It went well.

I have less than two weeks here.  I can't wait to get to Chile.

Here's some pics of the MTC.

La Actitud Es Todo!

Attitude is everything!  Today was awesome! I played soccer and was able to see Elder Chase Ebeling!  So great!   This week was really good. It is frustrating you can't go knock on doors to talk to people and yelling through the gates gets old.  We kept at it all week and were able to talk to a man who was interested in reading the Book of Mormon and also talked to another man on the bus.   The man on the bus knew very little about missionaries other than we were nice to everyone. He wanted to read the Book of Mormon so we gave him one and referred him to missionaries in his area. We had a baptism on Saturday for this dope 13 year old boy who already knows so much about the church.  I confirmed him on Sunday in Sacrament Meeting in my broken Spanish.  He was so happy and understood what I said so it all worked out.   I kept thinking this week about the time that our family took food and supplies to the African refuge...

Hump Day and Liv's Birthday!

This last year has been crazy with some of the best moments of my life and some of the hardest / worst moments of my life!  Here's what I have learned this past year: God answers prayers! If we read, pray, listen to the holy ghost, and write down our feelings, God will answer our prayers! The gospel brings joy and happiness in our lives. The Book of Mormon is true and blesses our lives! I've read the Book of Mormon twice since I've been out here on my mission. It's so much more fun and easier to read than the New Testament and the Old Testament. The Book of Mormon keeps the doctrine so simple and makes it so everyone can understand it!  Joseph Smith was a true prophet! I have had the chance over the past year to teach a lot of Lesson 1 which is the restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ! It's been crazy because there's one point in there that talks about how Joseph Smith saw Jesus Christ and God. Every time we share it, the Spirit fills the roo...

Loving it ...

My companion and I taught Priesthood this week.  We taught from the book Christ's Ideals for Living on the attributes of Christ.  That book is awesome.  We taught about 65 elders and it went well I think.  My companion was sick this past week and I was able to give him a blessing. He got feeling better the next day.  It was super dope. I love Alma 38.  If you get a chance go read it and replace the name son with your name.   It's the best. I am loving it here.  I love the Mexican people, the noises at night - haha - gun shots, fireworks and dogs barking all the time.  There is nothing better!  I only have about 3 weeks left here.  It is going fast.   Below is a picture of me with the head chef Estabon.  He is such a freaking bro!   #godsarmyletsgo Elder Seager
