Book of Mormon

By Elder Zach Seager -


This week I got a little lost in the work and forgot about everything at my house in Utah. hahahah I went hard this week boys! I have really been trying to teach with the Book of Mormon and it is paying off.  These people love it and they love the stories in it!  It is such a powerful book and there is no way Joseph Smith could have translated it.  Something dope I figured out this week in my personal study was that when Nephi broke his bow and then he made a new one -the weird thing is he also made arrows.  Why did he make more arrows if he already had the old ones?  It is because when you hunt with a bow and arrow you need the arrows to be the exact same size!!  How would Joseph Smith know that?  It is crazy little things you can see in the Book of Mormon that testifies of its truthfulness. 

This week we worked really hard and found a lot of new people to teach.  One of the girls we have been teaching just committed to a baptism date and that was a really spiritual high moment for all of us!  When we were done with the lesson, my comp said I gave the lesson with perfect Spanish.  He said the words I said were so powerful, but the weird thing is I don't remember almost anything I said.  I was God's instrument in His hands to help someone else receive more spiritual blessings!  

Loving life ......hope all is good back home! Keep killing the game guys! YEW

Go Aggies!!!!!!  School should start back up soon for you guys good luck!

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
