Semana 75

Dear Elder Lutze,

I hope this email finds you well! I continue to pray for your Zone, companion, and Diego. 

This week was quiet. Dad was in SG and work was really busy for me! Dad went to his conference and finished the HVAC. I went to the combined activity on Tuesday. Cami”s endowment was very nice. We enjoyed lunch together and afterwards dad and I did a little DI shopping. Always fun to find great bargains!!!

Planning our Cedar City weekend. You won’t be home by Sept 20 - 22 right? You come home the 25th ish?

Love  

Mom

Thought….

Elder Bruce R. McConkie (1915–85) of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles wrote: “As far as the gathering of Israel is concerned, the Book of Mormon is the most important book that ever has been or ever will be written. It is the book that gathers Israel and that reveals, in plainness and perfection, the doctrine of the gathering of the chosen seed. It is the book, given of God, to prove the truth and divinity of his great latter-day work. It contains the fulness of the everlasting gospel and carries with it the evidence of its own divinity. Every person who is truly converted knows by the revelations of the Holy Ghost to the spirit within him that the Book of Mormon is the mind and will and voice of the Lord to the world today. It is the Book of Mormon that causes people to believe the gospel and join the Church, and, as we have heretofore seen, it is the power that brings to pass the gathering of Israel. If there were no Book of Mormon, from a practical standpoint, the gathering of the Lord’s people in the last days would come to a standstill. The lost sheep of Israel hear the voice of their Shepherd as it is found in that book and, heeding that voice, come into the true sheepfold. There is no way of overstating the importance of this book of Nephite scripture in the salvation of men in the last days” (A New Witness for the Articles of Faith [1985], 554).
