HOW TO PUT CHRIST FIRST...

 

ZOOM FROM LAST NIGHT PDF FROM LAST NIGHT POWERPOINT SO YOU CAN TEACH THIS TO YOUR WARD View this email in your browser How to put Christ at the Center of your Temple worship… Suggestions for Successful Worship Begin your day with prayer: to help you put aside the attempts the adversary will try to defeat your goal of going to the temple.   Before you leave home, let Father know how important this is to you:   Just know, that as you enter the HOV lane, someone is going to cut you off, but you do not respond in anger and you are not deterred.  Just know that as you leave the toddler with the babysitter, who just poured a whole box of fish food into the bowl, she has the ability to clean it so you can leave.  On this day, nothing can sway you from your Covenants with the Lord.  You are doing great! When you arrive, say a prayer : before you leave your car make sure you are in tune with the feelings which are appropriate for Temple Worship.  This will clear your mind of any negative or confusing thoughts.   When you get dressed: study the name of the person on your card, and reflect on the ordinance that is provided to you for the redeeming of the dead. We study their lives before we leave using history and their timeline to appreciate all that they endured for us to be here today.   When you perform the ordinance: picture Christ embracing them in your mind. These thoughts are from the Leadership Meeting from Rootstech 2023 We never pick and choose favorites on a whim.  No one is exempt from receiving the blessings of the temple.  We should baptize all of our ancestors and with forgiveness in our hearts, should they have wronged us prior to death, we need to baptize them regardless.  They can choose to accept it or not, and they may have had a change of heart as well.  The Lord said, “10 I, the Lord, will forgive whom I will forgive, but of you, it is required to forgive all men.” - Doctrine and Covenants 64:10.  Give that some thought if you have ever said the words, “I refuse to do her work.” All through our lives, we make covenants with the Lord.  Sometimes we have to rededicate our hearts to those promises knowing that when we do our part, He has no recourse but to do His. If we are doing work for them and forgetting to document our families' lives while they are still here, won’t that make it harder once they are gone? If they are here, they can help us find the answers to questions we have.  Do we have their life story written and recorded voices and videos NOW for their posterity?  Have we preserved their stories?  Think of this as you re-read the Prophet’s words above, that “…Any time we do anything  that helps anyone on either side of the veil  to make and keep their Covenants with God, we are helping to gather Israel.” When we go to the temple to do the work we have covenanted with the Lord to do, there is always a thought, “That ancestor is pleased with me because I was obedient and did work that he cannot do while I am on this earth.”  Perhaps our first thought should be, “Christ is pleased with me because I obeyed the Covenants we made to help others on both sides of the veil.” Join us on June 10 at 5 pm for our Zoom.  We would love to hear your thoughts of what we have discussed here.  Perhaps you can enlighten others who are listening and empower them to dedicate themselves to the covenants they have made!

MAKING YOUR TEMPLE EXPERIENCE MORE MEANINGFUL

Well, for those who figured out that I typo'd the password, my most humble apologies.  We missed you, but the important thing is that we captured it on video.  I now want to know how those who were able to come figured out the error and got right on!  Genius!  Just know that if you ever can't get on we purchase the same room for every month of every year...727 058 3299 and the password is always 2ZNTFY     I typo'd a Z and made it a 2 - so sorry!!!!  So somewhere in your phone, write down the zoom address and this meeting room and password numbers and you'll never have the problem again!

We encourage you to enjoy our zoom and learn how to make your temple experience more meaningful.  Now is the time to teach your children and grandchildren how to get to know their kindred dead thru the veil.  We will teach you a technique that will speak to your soul.  We hope you will watch the replay here or on our blog

2.   As an investigator, have they been given a login and password?
3.   Have they started their tree?
4.   What is the baptism date?
5.   What is the 30 day mark towards the 60 day goal?
6.   What is your 60 day target date?
7    Post Baptism - have they been signed up for Partner Access?
8.   Have they learned the Consultant Planner?
9.   Do they have a limited use recommend?
10. Do they know how to reserve a name?
11.  Have they printed names?
12.  What was the date of the first visit to the temple with their names?

FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS TO GET IT SET UP:

This is working!  We have been getting messages that the Bishops/TFHCs are editing the sheets.

We updated the formulas in my Tracking spreadsheet - My husband is a mathematician and made it a lot more professional.    Here is our better version - I'm going to send it to others.

We created an account at onedrive.com

Created a folder for each Stake

Created a folder for each ward in that folder

Then saved a template as each ward name

Lastly created an excel sheet for our Mission President who wants to be informed and updated often of all the shared links, by ward....by Stake.  All he has to do is open one excel file and click on any ward he wants.

As long as no one changes your links and tries to do a "save as" to their system, your Leads can keep it updated for the Presidents/ (Stake and Mission) to keep "in the know!"

Excel is Microsoft Office - and it works very well with onedrive.com....google drive stops and hesitates with MSO products.
