Abilene Stake Saints ask your Elders Quorum presidency & Relief Society presidency to bring awareness to the all members to the following instructions:
1. A ward bullentin announcement
2. Suggested email message
3. Videos to share on Ward pages and
4. A flyer to email or post on ward bullentin boards

Elder Dieter F. Uchtrdorf stated, "Pathway is a bridge to the world of online college education and a pathway to opportuities for a successful livelihood." It also helps bring members closer to the Savior and His Church.

Along with Self-Reliance Services and other Church resources, BYU Pathway can bless members of your branch both temporally and spiritually.

One has to go through your Bishop or President of your Ward or Branch.
You also must meet 3 criteria for your Bishop/President to proceed on your behalf.
1) active temple recommend
2) family/friends can't help you
3) your dedication to hard work and completion of schooling because . . . loan will need to be paid back.
It is all outlined in the church Self-Reliance website
Thank you for asking.

Good morning brothers and sisters,
so excited that Self Reliance classes are taking off for the Fall Semester!

2 classes in Abilene, 3 classes in San Angelo, 1 class in Comanche and perhaps 1 class in Eastland.

Ok, Eastland is a stretch!, . . . but this is the Lord's work!

Don't worry, if you didn't get into the Fall Semester Classes, there is always in the Spring!
Gotta love the program from the church, they are flexible enough to meet the needs of all of Heavenly Father's children, even in the Abilene Stake Area!
You are not forgotten! 👍💕💕💕👏👏👏👏

In full felicity,
Margaret Garcia
Abilene Stake Self Reliance Specialist
