Sacrament Service
First Speaker
“Jesus Christ set the perfect example of how to love and serve others. As priesthood holders, we have a duty to serve others.

Ammon's success in teaching the Lamanite king was in consistently serving him.
Mosiah 17
1 And now it came to pass that as Alma was journeying from the land of Gideon southward, away to the land of Manti, behold, to his astonishment, he met with the sons of Mosiah journeying towards the land of Zarahemla.
2 Now these sons of Mosiah were with Alma at the time the angel first appeared unto him; therefore Alma did rejoice exceedingly to see his brethren; and what added more to his joy, they were still his brethren in the Lord; yea, and they had waxed strong in the knowledge of the truth; for they were men of a sound understanding and they had searched the scriptures diligently, that they might know the word of God.
3 But this is not all; they had given themselves to much prayer, and fasting; therefore they had the spirit of prophecy, and the spirit of revelation, and when they taught, they taught with power and authority of God.

Mosiah 2:17
17 And behold, I tell you these things that ye may learn wisdom; that ye may learn that when ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God.

Sunday School
We have a responsibility to help our spiritual siblings return to Father.
We should learn to savor righteousness. We need to learn to be comfortable around goodness.
Heavenly Father built in ways for us to learn. Some call them weaknesses or imperfections.

What are some of the roles of the Sabbath?

-Renew/remember covenants
-Sacred time. Help you to stand in holy places

Is doing service a contradiction to resting?
The Sabbath is the Lord's day, but it is made for man. Is that a contradiction?
