Lesson Summary: "Joseph & Hyrum Smith, Witnesses of Jesus Christ - Sister Cerniga

The Gospel of Jesus Christ, most glorious of all messages to mankind.

"In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established." - 2 Corinthians 13:1

Hyrum was older than Joseph, but he was humble and faithful. He supported Joseph.
"In life they were not divided, and in death they were not separated!" - Doctrine & Covenants 135:3 



Hyrum Smith: “Firm As the Pillars of Heaven” - October 1995 General Conference
M. RUSSELL BALLARD of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles

In September of 1840, Joseph Smith, Sr. gathered his family around him. This venerable patriarch was dying and wanted to leave his blessing on his beloved wife and children. Hyrum, the eldest living son, asked his father to intercede with heaven when he arrived there so the enemies of the Church “may not have so much power” over the Latter-day Saints. Father Smith then laid his hands upon Hyrum’s head and blessed him to have “peace … sufficient … to accomplish the work which God has given you to do.” Knowing of Hyrum’s lifelong faithfulness, he concluded this last blessing with the promise that Hyrum would “be as firm as the pillars of heaven unto the end of [his] days.”


How do we witness with and to our family?

-Pray
-Have Family Home Evening
-Have Pictures of the Temple and Christ in our home
-Go to the Temple! Bring the whole family


We all need to have peace sufficient to accomplish the work God has given us to do.

Relief Society Birthday Dinner 4/24/2014


Lesson Summary Chapter 6: The Sacrament -Sister Mains (4/13/2014)

Mormon Messages - Lifting Burdens: The Atonement of Jesus Christ:
https://www.lds.org/pages/mormon-messages?lang=eng#lifting-burdens-the-atonement-of-jesus-christ

We should be excited to take the sacrament and participate in this sacred and holy meeting.

D&C 20:75 "It is expedient that the church meet together often to partake of bread and wine in the remembrance of the Lord Jesus"

Reasons for the Sacrament:
-remember our Savior
-renew covenants
-feel the spirit
-witness
-show love and commitment
-strengthen in unity
-be clean and pure
-qualify for the spirit

2 Nephi 20:4 "...For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still."



What are we thinking about during the Sacrament? President Joseph Fielding Smith said, "There isn’t one of us I take it that hasn’t done something wrong and then been sorry and wished we hadn’t. Then our consciences strike us and we have been very, very miserable. Have you gone through that experience? I have. … But here we have the Son of God carrying the burden of my transgressions and your transgressions. … His greatest torment was not the nails in his hands or in his feet, as bad as they were, but the torment of mind in some way that is not clear to me. But he carried the burden—our burden. I added something to it; so did you. So did everybody else. He took it upon himself to pay the price that I might escape—that you might escape—the punishment on the conditions that we will receive his gospel and be true and faithful in it."

D&C 19:16 "For behold, I, God, have suffered these things for all, that they might not suffer if they would repent"
