Book
of Mormon stories that my teacher tells to meAre about the Lamanites in ancient history.Long ago their fathers came from far across the sea,Giv'n
the land if they lived
righteously.
Lamanites
met others who were seeking liberty,
And the land soon welcomed all who wanted to be free.
Book of Mormon stories say that we must brothers be,
Giv'n
the land if we live
righteously.Alma was rebellious, and he fought against the right.Then one day an angel came to turn him to the light.Struck before his brethren, Alma learned humility.Then he taught in the land righteously. Don't forget Abinadi, who stood before the king.All chained up from head to toe, the gospel he did bring.
If he would deny it, then the king would set him free.
He was true, and he died righteously

Ammon
was a missionary serving Lamanites,Tending King Lamoni's sheep for several days and nights.Robbers came; he saved the sheep by
fighting
fearlessly.
He had learned he could live righteously.
Once
two thousand sons of God were called to fight the foe.
Marching as an army into battle they did go.
They believed that Christ the Lord their guardian would be.
They had learned they should live righteously
.Samuel the Lamanite, high on the city wall,Came to warn the people, and repentance was his call.Arrows could not hit him, for a man of God was he,And he taught in the land righteously.
BOOK OF MORMON STORIESSlide14
(Slowly
and reverently) After
Christ was crucified and died for you and me,
He came forth to teach the truth to all who would be free.
Hands were laid upon each child. He blessed them tenderly,
And they lived in the land righteously.

Why do you think it is important that we not take the sacrament unworthily?
Take his name in vainSlide20
“Deacons, teachers, and priests should always be clean in appearance and reverent in the manner in which they perform their solemn and sacred responsibilities. Teachers’ special assignments in preparing the sacrament are the least visible but should still be done with dignity, quietly and reverently. Teachers should always remember that the emblems they are preparing represent the body and blood of our Lord.
“To avoid distracting from the sacred occasion, priests should speak the sacrament prayers clearly and distinctly. Prayers that are rattled off swiftly or mumbled inaudibly will not
do...Speak
to be heard and understood, and say it like you mean
it…
Elder
Oaks,
Ensign
, Nov. 1998,

“Deacons should pass the sacrament in a reverent and orderly manner, with no needless motions or expressions that call attention to themselves. In all their actions they should avoid distracting any member of the congregation from worship and covenant making.
“
All who officiate in the sacrament—in preparing, administering, or passing—should be well groomed and modestly dressed, with nothing about their personal appearance that calls special attention to themselves.
“If someone officiating in this sacred ordinance is unworthy to participate, and this is known to anyone present, their participation is a serious distraction to that person. Young men, if any of you is unworthy, talk to your bishop without delay

“
May I suggest that wherever possible a white shirt be worn by the deacons, teachers, and priests who handle the sacrament. For sacred ordinances in the Church we often use ceremonial clothing, and a white shirt could be seen as a gentle reminder of the white clothing you wore in the baptismal font and an anticipation of the white shirt you will soon wear into the temple and onto your missions.
“I have a final suggestion. With the single exception of those priests occupied breaking the bread, all who hold the Aaronic Priesthood should join in singing the sacrament hymn by which we worship and prepare to partake. No one needs that spiritual preparation more than the priesthood holders who will officiate in it. My young brethren, it is important that you sing the sacrament hymn. Please do so

How may your lives be different if you were not able to take the sacrament each week? Slide24
Elder Jeffrey R. Holland
“The praying Christ. That is the example to which we are to point others. The Christ of humility. The Christ of spiritual communion. The Christ who is dependent upon his Father. The Christ who asks for blessings upon others. The Christ who calls down the powers of heaven. The Christ who is one with the Father in at least one way that we too can be united with him—through prayer... That is the light we are to show the world and you are to show your students. It is the image of Christ praying unspeakable things.”
