Dealing with life’s challenges successfully requires faith in Jesus Christ and emotional resilience. Emotional resilience is: • The ability to adapt to emotional challenges with courage and faith centered in Jesus Christ. • Helping yourself and others the best you can. • Reaching out for additional help when needed. Learning some basic skills for dealing with life’s challenges and disappointments can help us prepare to face hardships with emotional resilience. Here are some of the principles of emotional resilience: • Developing Healthy Thinking Patterns • Understanding Our Body and Emotions • Managing Difficult Emotions • Building Healthy Relationships • Providing Strength to Others Check out this article: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/life/tips-for-becoming-emotionally- resilient?lang=eng for more information. You can access the course material online here: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/emotional-resilience-for-self-reliance?lang=eng We will be hosting an Emotional Self-Reliance Course for the sisters in Canyon Creek Ward. We have worked hard to gain all approvals to have it in our ward. This class will be for sisters only and will be led by Karen Bagshaw on Thursday evenings at 7pm in the Relief Society Room of the 24th Street Chapel. All health mandates will be followed and masks must be worn in the church building at all times. To ensure that we are well within our occupancy limits, we'd ask for you to reply to [email protected] to sign up for the class. This will be an opportunity to grow emotionally, as well as spiritually. As with many of the self-reliance courses, it will also be an opportunity to build lasting relationships within the group. We hope that if you are feeling lost, lonely, overwhelmed, or perhaps even just needing an evening once a week with your sisters in the gospel, that you will come and learn with us Stake: Sunday, May 16th, 2021, NAC Relief Society Devotional 3:00 PM – 4:30 PM MDT CANADA CALGARY, ILLINOIS CHICAGO, KANSAS W I C H I T A , MONTANA BILLINGS WYOMING , A N D NEBRASKA OMAHA COORDINATING COUNCILS GENERAL OFFICER TRAINING : BY VIDEO CONFERENCE With Sister Sharon Eubank – 1st Counselor, Relief Society General Presidency __________________________________________________ To maintain security in the meeting, we ask that leaders do not publish nor share the following information beyond the intended audience.

  • Latter-Day Saint Liturgy: the Administration of the Body and Blood of Jesus
    religions Article Latter-Day Saint Liturgy: The Administration of the Body and Blood of Jesus James E. Faulconer Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT 84602, USA; [email protected] Abstract: Latter-day Saint (“Mormon”) liturgy opens its participants to a world undefined by a stark border between the transcendent and immanent, with an emphasis on embodiment and relationality. The formal rites of the temple, and in particular that part of the rite called “the endowment”, act as a frame that erases the immanent–transcendent border. Within that frame, the more informal liturgy of the weekly administration of the blood and body of Christ, known as “the sacrament”, transforms otherwise mundane acts of living into acts of worship that sanctify life as a whole. I take a phenomenological approach, hoping that doing so will deepen interpretations that a more textually based approach might miss. Drawing on the works of Robert Orsi, Edward S. Casey, Paul Moyaert, and Nicola King, I argue that the Latter-day Saint sacrament is not merely a ritualized sign of Christ’s sacrifice. Instead, through the sacrament, Christ perdures with its participants in an act of communal memorialization by which church members incarnate the coming of the divine community of love and fellow suffering. Participants inhabit a hermeneutically transformed world as covenant children born again into the family of God. Keywords: Mormon; Latter-day Saint; liturgy; rites; sacrament; endowment; temple; memory Citation: Faulconer, James E. 2021. Latter-Day Saint Liturgy: The In 1839, in contrast to most other early nineteenth-century American religious leaders, Administration of the Body and Joseph Smith, the founder of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints1 said, “Being Blood of Jesus.

    A New Balance between Gospel Instruction in the Home and in the Church Enclosure to the First Presidency letter dated October 6, 2018 The Council of the First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles has approved a significant step in achieving a new balance between gospel instruction in the home and in the Church. Purposes and blessings associated with this and other recent changes include the following: Deepening conversion to Heavenly Father and the Lord Jesus Christ and strengthening faith in Them. Strengthening individuals and families through home-centered, Church-supported curriculum that contributes to joyful gospel living. Honoring the Sabbath day, with a focus on the ordinance of the sacrament. Helping all of Heavenly Father’s children on both sides of the veil through missionary work and receiving ordinances and covenants and the blessings of the temple. Beginning in January 2019, the Sunday schedule followed throughout the Church will include a 60-minute sacrament meeting, and after a 10-minute transition, a 50-minute class period. Sunday Schedule Beginning January 2019 60 minutes Sacrament meeting 10 minutes Transition to classes 50 minutes Classes for adults Classes for youth Primary The 50-minute class period for youth and adults will alternate each Sunday according to the following schedule: First and third Sundays: Sunday School. Second and fourth Sundays: Priesthood quorums, Relief Society, and Young Women. Fifth Sundays: youth and adult meetings under the direction of the bishop. The bishop determines the subject to be taught, the teacher or teachers (usually members of the ward or stake), and whether youth and adults, men and women, young men and young women meet separately or combined.

  • Gathering Together in the Latter Days” Sister Jean B
    “Gathering Together in the Latter Days” Sister Jean B. Bingham, Relief Society general president Sister Sharon Eubank, first counselor, Relief Society general presidency This address was given Friday, May 1, 2020 at the BYU Women’s Conference © 2020 by Brigham Young University Women’s Conference All rights reserved. For further information, write: BYU Women’s Conference 253 Harman Continuing Education Building Provo, Utah 84602 801-422-7692 Email: [email protected] Website: womensconference.byu.edu SISTER JEAN B. BINGHAM: It is so wonderful to meet with you in this format! We are living examples of the power of gathering despite challenging times. In these past two years, much has been said about gathering Israel on both sides of the veil. In October 2018, President Russell M. Nelson invited every woman to “shape the future by helping to gather Israel.” He reiterated what he had said to the youth the previous June when he declared that “this gathering is the greatest challenge, the greatest cause, and the greatest work on earth today!” What does that mean: “gathering Israel?” Israel is a name for God’s covenant people. That is us—and many others scattered throughout the world who are willing to follow the teachings of the restored gospel and example of Jesus Christ. “Gathering Israel” simply means bringing yourself, your family and other loved ones—either living now or who have passed to the other side of the veil—closer to our Heavenly Father and His Son, our Redeemer. The goal is to unite families who are prepared to live with Them eternally.

    Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. Exodus 20:8-11 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the Lord, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words: Then shalt thou delight thyself in the Lord; and I will cause thee to ilde upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it. Isaiah 58:13-14 Five things to do on the Sabbath: • Go to church; • Visit; • Study; • Nap; • Fast and pray. Go to Church Sounds easy. After all, here we are. Did you prepare yourself? There’s a primary song, Saturday: Saturday is a special day. It’s the day we get ready for Sunday: We clean the house, and we shop at the store, So we won’t have to work until Monday.
