Lots of Meetings

Letter from January 29

I have no remembrance of anything that happened this week other than being in meetings. Tuesday we went to the temple, Wednesday we had interviews with President and then on Thursday, Elder Depsain and I had a Doctrine of Christ meeting which lasted from 9-5. it was long but also JAM PACKED FULL of good things. Also seeing President White three times in a week is super nice.

In Doctrine of Christ we learned a lot about Jesus Christ and his teachings. We read in many different books in the Book of Mormon and one that I really loved was from 3 Nephi 27. If you would all go read this Chapter that would be great. All throughout this chapter, it talks about the things that we must do to enter into the Kingdom of God, or Eternal Happiness. When we live the Gospel, we will see the results and feel of Gods love for us more and more throughout our daily lives.
Here are a few verses that i loved:
9) Verily I say unto you, that ye are built upon my gospel; therefore ye shall call whatsoever things ye do call, in my name; therefore if ye call upon the Father, for the church, if it be in my name the Father will hear you;
10) And if it so be that the church is built upon my gospel then will the Father show forth his own works in it.
21) Verily, verily, I say unto you, this is my gospel; and ye know the things that ye must do in my church; for the works which ye have seen me do that shall ye also do; for that which ye have seen me do even that shall ye do;
22) Therefore, if ye do these things blessed are ye, for ye shall be lifted up at the last day.

I will leave the rest for you to read. But I love this chapter and I love learning more and more of the Gospel as a share it everyday.

love,

Elder Sager

Priesthood Part 2

Image
Letter from Dec 4 This week, there was a Nativity showcase in West Richland and we were given the opportunity to usher and greet people at it. It was really quite neat to see all the different Nativity sets from all around the world. Every classroom in the Church was packed full of them. It was cool. about 10 minutes after we had left the showcase, we got a call from Ricardo and Sujey saying that they were just pulling up to the church and were wondering if we were gonna be there. But Sadly we werent able to be there with them. Last week Elder Anderson were teaching Ricardo and Sujey and they told us that he was having some bounce back pains from the frostbite he had last year from working out in the fields. After they told us, Sujey had told him a little bit about Priesthood blessing and shared some experiences that she has had from receiving them. He liked hearing them but didn't really know if they worked or if we were all just crazy. We asked him if he wanted a blessing and...

#LightTheWorld

Letter from Nov 27 This week was FULL of miracles, like literally. I was stuffed full on thanksgiving, Martin got the Priesthood, and priesthood blessings. Thanksgiving was awesome, i love pigging out and eating all the food i can. Especially turkey, I love turkey. On thanksgiving we were asked not to go out Tracting so we went around sharing #LightTheWorld and offering our service to people. It was a wonderful day. We ate dinner with some members and got to look at some really cool cars, They had a 58 Chevy Camaro and a 28 Chevy. After dinner we had a Zone council and talked a lot about how we can use Light the World and transition into teaching a Gospel Principle. If you havent had the chance to watch the Light The World video, go do it right now. It shows us that one thing that we need to do to come closer to Christ is to serve, and who doesnt love serving other people. I am going to be doing the daily service projects and would hope that y'all do them to. Serving just makes...

The Great Outdoors

Letter from May 29 What a great week full of great things like the Great outdoors. We had zone conferences this week which were a little different than normal zone conferences, Not a single missionary was wearing a White shirt and tie. The meeting was at the Timbers camp over near Dayton, WA. Who knew that there was actually green here in this part of Washington!! It was beautiful and I felt at home being out in the Woods sitting in a camp chair wearing Jeans and a t-shirt. We had 4 different stations where we would listen to them talk about Gospel topics, like Revelation, coping with difficulties in the mission, and working with our Ward leaders. It was just great being outside in the woods in God's creation and feeling the spirit super strongly. So just last night we found someone named Heilmer, well... He walked right into our hands. He just moved into a home with one of the members about a week ago and is just getting thrown into the Gospel. They took him to the temple and...
