Mt. View Sunday Summary
It is with sadness and love that we share the news that former Mt. View member, Dixie Pickett passed away.   Funeral services will be for family only 
Sacrament Meeting Minutes
Robert Inman shared a personal story of how he used prayer to help him in learning and doing something new in his school life.   He reminded us all that Heavenly Father hears and answers our prayers and that He is involved in the details of our lives.
Luke Neal shared his insights on prayer and how it is showing us the wisdom and perfection of God.   He may not come (or answer) when we want but He will always be on time.   He knows before we ask what we need but He wants us to ask.
JP Dameron, introduced himself and gave us examples from the scriptures (Alma 17 and 26) on ways we need to make our lives better as we live the gospel and learn to turn up the volume of the Holy Spirit in our lives.   Examples he gave were to search the scriptures daily, pray and fast.  We need to work, repent, show faith, do good works, have patience, rely on the s=mercies of God and give thanks as we raise our commitment level.
PERSONAL STUDY

August 26–September 1

1 Corinthians 8–13  “Ye Are the Body of Christ”

In Paul’s time, Corinth was a wealthy trade center with residents from all over the Roman Empire. With so many different cultures and religions in the city, Church members in Corinth struggled to maintain unity, so Paul sought to help them find unity in their belief in Christ. This unity was to be more than just peaceful coexistence; Paul wasn’t asking them merely to tolerate each other’s differences. Rather, he taught that when you join the Church of Jesus Christ, you are “baptized into one body,” and every body part is needed (1 Corinthians 12:13). When one member is lost, it’s like losing a limb, and the body is weaker as a result. When one member suffers, we should all feel it and do our part to relieve it. In this kind of unity, differences are not just acknowledged but cherished, because without members of diverse gifts and abilities, the body would be limited. So whether you feel like you’ve always been at home in the Church or find yourself wondering if you truly belong, Paul’s message to you is that unity is not sameness. You need your fellow Saints, and your fellow Saints need you.
