Sacrament Meeting


Liam Matthews spoke on Enduring to the End and related it to the struggles he had while participating in a robotics competition.   
Westen Whitmer, from the stake high council, shared his experiences hiking in unknown territory  and how although it was uphill and challenging with no indication of where he was or how far he still had to go and away from a cool, inviting place he had previously passed,  it was worth it.   Once he had enjoyed  time spent at a beautiful water feature called The Crack, he still had to return to the beginning and complete the hike.   Brother Whitmer compared this to our life and how if we follow the covenant path of baptism, confirmation, priesthood ordinations, and endowment of temple blessings, we still have to endure to the end and continue our journey before we can arrive safely at home with our Heavenly Father.
He identified steps to help us stay on the path home.  1.  Focus on growth through the scriptures and prayer.  2.  Honor the Sabbath.  3.  Reach out to others to help them in their journey.  4.  Fast with purpose and 5.  Go to the temple often.


Personal Study
January 21–27

John 1


We Have Found the Messiah

Who was John?  Jesus Christ was “in the beginning with God.”  Disciples of Jesus Christ bear witness of Him.  What does it mean to “become the sons of God”?  Has anyone seen God?  Who is Elias, and who is “that prophet”?

Book of Mormon Scripture Study Class
The full time missionaries sponsor a Book of Mormon class. 
The class is held on Sunday Evenings from 5-6:00 pm in the Relief Society Room at the Shea Building 

The teacher is Daryl Williams of the Mountain View Ward. The lessons are for those who want a better understanding of the Book of Mormon and is suitable for both life-long members and those who do not attend the church, whether members or not. It is ideal for people who do not feel like they ready to attend a worship service, but are interested in the Church. The dress is casual. The class covers the Book of Mormon in one year, so it provides a more in-depth look at the book than typical of a Gospel Doctrine class and makes the class suitable for both long-time students of the scriptures and beginners.   Bring a physical copy of all the scriptures and a notebook for your thoughts.   Read 1 Nephi chapters 1 - 5 this week.
