Senior Service Missions
"This is a global work. When I am situated comfortably in my home, I'm in the wrong place." - President Nelson
"The gathering of Israel is the most important thing taking place on the earth today. Nothing else compares in magnitude, nothing else causes in importance, nothing else compares in majesty." - President Nelson
“In the course of his divine descent he was assaulted with every temptation inflicted on the human race.
“After our futile attempts to explain the awesome depths of the ‘terrible trip,’ we come back again to those simple
but expressive words of the scriptures. ‘He descended below all things’ :(D&C 88:6).” (Tad R. Callister, Infinite Atonement, pp. 96-97)
"We are deeply grateful for the faithful service of senior missionaries around the world and for the signicant contributions they make in building the kingdom of God. We continue to encourage members to serve either fulltime missions away from home as their circumstances permit or senior service missions if they are unable to leave home. Starting this May, and based on Area Presidency direction and approval, eligible members anywhere in the world may be considered for a senior service mission. " (First Presidency Letter, 6 May 2021)
Matthew 5:1-16
1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
13 ¶ Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Who is the salt and who is the savor?
The law of consecration is alive and well in the Church. It is not a future prophecy that we are waiting to be fulfilled.
“a religion that does not require the sacrifice of all things never has the power sufficient to produce the faith necessary unto life and salvation." (Joseph Smith)
Revelation 15:3
3 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.
