College Overview

Sister Rivera did a presentation on Colleges.

Why do you think the church encourages us to get an education?

Please read Doctrine and Covenants 130:18-19

"Whatever principle  of intelligence we attain unto in this life, it will rise with us in the resurrection. And if a person gains more knowledge and intelligence in this life through his diligence and obedience than another, he will have so much the advantage in the world to come."

The Lord we will be better instruments in this world if we further our education.

Sister Rivera reviewed:

I have handouts for the students who were not able to make it.  If you have any questions please feel free to ask me.  We can also contact Sister Rivera.

Ten Commandments- Exodus 20

Last Tuesday we started studying the Ten Commandments.  And wow what an interesting conversation it was.  We were only able to cover the first three commandments.

-Thou shalt have no other gods before me
(What does this commandment mean to you?)
What Gods do you idol? 


-Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image
(What does this commandment mean to you?)


-Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain
(How may you do this? Do you do this?)


We will continue this discussion on Tuesday.  I hope you had a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
