Church Services This Week at Oak Ridge Ward Layton North Stake Layton Utah Jan 19, 2025

Sacrament Service

First Speaker

A missionary that recently returned from the Peru Lima South Mission.  He also served for a time in Texas, due to an issue with his visa.


Alma 37:6

6 Now ye may suppose that this is foolishness in me; but behold I say unto you, that by small and simple things are great things brought to pass; and small means in many instances doth confound the wise.


People that feel loved feel the spirit more easily.


Next Speaker

Do not neglect our spiritual health.


DnC 88:18

18 Therefore, it must needs be sanctified from all unrighteousness, that it may be prepared for the celestial glory;


Do not sacrifice what you want more for what you want now.  If you don't sacrifice for what you want, what you want becomes the sacrifice.


“Brothers and sisters, now is the time for you and for me to prepare for the Second Coming of our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ. Now is the time for us to make our discipleship our highest priority.” (President Russell M. Nelson, “The Lord Jesus Christ Will Come Again”, October 2024 General Conference)


Omni 1:26

26 And now, my beloved brethren, I would that ye should come unto Christ, who is the Holy One of Israel, and partake of his salvation, and the power of his redemption. Yea, come unto him, and offer your whole souls as an offering unto him, and continue in fasting and praying, and endure to the end; and as the Lord liveth ye will be saved.


How do we worship during sacrament meeting?  Do we give thanks for the things Father and Christ have done for us while the speakers are speaking?


“Everything to do with becoming more like the Savior takes effort. When God wanted to give the Ten Commandments to Moses, where did He tell Moses to go? Up on top of Mount Sinai. So Moses had to walk all the way to the top of that mountain to get the Ten Commandments. The Lord loves effort because effort brings rewards that can’t come without it.” (President Russell M Nelson, Adapted from “Restoration Conversations with President Russell M. Nelson,” video collection, Gospel Media library)


Sunday School 

Joseph's mom used to go to that Grove to pray. When he says that he had “previously designed to go” was probably because of his mother's example. 


Have both feet into the Atonement of Jesus Christ.  Do just stand half in and half out.


What are we each destined for? 


Revelation is different for everyone.  God knows how to speak to us in ways we understand. Might not be the same as someone else. 


When we pray for one thing, God often will tell us something we weren't considering. 


God is a physical being. God and Jesus are two different beings.
