Read the Book of Mormon With Us!

English
We have set a goal in our mission to read the entire Book of Mormon by General Conference on April 4-5th. We would like to invite you to join with us.  We had already started when I realized how fun it would be for you to read with us too!  If you don’t have time to catch up to where we are then just start where we are this week! 
 
You can invite Aunts, Uncles, neighbors - anyone - to join in as well. We want to let the missionaries know how many people are reading with them, to help them feel your love and support as they strengthen their testimony of our Savior Jesus Christ by reading the Book of Mormon.
 
In the sidebar of the blog is a weekly reading calendar so you'll know where we are.  There are 642 pages in the Spanish Book of Mormon and  531 pages in the English Book of Mormon.  Beginning January 12 there are 84 days until General Conference. To finish in time we will need to  read almost 8 pages per day in Spanish or little more than 6 pages per day in English. Then on January 18 we must be on page 56 in Spanish or on page 43 in English. 
 
Please leave a comment below if you are willing to join us in this endeavor, and let us know how many people are in your family if your whole family is participating!

Hemos puesto una meta como misión de leer todo el Libro de Mormón antes de la Conferencia General el 4-5 de abril. Nos gustaría invitarlos a unirse con nosotros.   Ya habíamos empezado cuando me di cuenta de lo divertido que sería para usted leer con nosotros también! Si usted no tiene tiempo para ponerse al día entonces simplemente comienze donde estamos esta semana!
 
Ustedes pueden invitar a sus tías, tíos, vecinos – cualquier persona - a unirse con nosotros también. Queremos que los misioneros sepan cuantas personas están leyendo con ellos, para que se sientan de su amor y su apoyo mientras fortalecen sus testimonios de nuestro Salvador Jesucristo por leer el Libro de Mormón. 
 
En la barra lateral del blog hay un calendario de la lectura semanal para que ustedes sepan dónde estamos. Hay 642 páginas en el Libro de Mormón en Español y 531 páginas en el Libro de Mormón en Ingles. Empezando el 12 de enero hay 84 días hasta la conferencia general. Para terminar a tiempo necesitamos leer casi 8 páginas cada día en español o unas pocas más que 6 páginas en Ingles.
Entonces el 18 de enero deberíamos de estar en la página 56 de español o la página 43 en Ingles. 
 
Favor dejar un comentario abajo si están dispuestos a unirse con nosotros en este esfuerzo y decirnos cuantas personas que hay en su familia si toda la familia está participando!

  15. Me comprometí a leer días pasados con ustedes el Libro de Mormón y en estos días me retrase, así que hoy leí por dos horas y media para ponerme al día, resulto que sentí fuerte el Espíritu al leer de Jesucristo, se que el vive y es nuestro Salvador !!!
