Pleasant Hill "Sacrament Summaries"

The Sabbath Day is a Delight!

Pleasant Hill Sacrament Meeting Summaries

April 19th, 2015

OUR BLESSED SACRAMENT MEETING was brought to life in the inspirational words of our young women's speaker Sister Kami Allen. Wise beyond her years, she reminded us about the importance of the Sabbath Day. "Attitude is the key." She brilliantly brought a young, yet on point aspect to Russell M. Nelson's quote "The Sabbath is a delight for the Lord has spoken it.

Brother Tommy Smith eloquently explained the importance of "persevering to the end."  He urged us to pray for guidance, and strength to stay on the path of righteousness while always being aware and prepared for the Dark forces that tempt us. As he spoke from the heart and drew words from the Holy Spirit he challenged us to "look into a child's eyes, to see the future, and teach them the Book of Mormon and the Bible."

Fast With Purpose
And lastly, Brother Doc Fullmer, ended our meeting with different aspects on "The Law of the Fast"
  • Have a prayer and purpose. As Alma and the Elder had a reason and fasted, we too need to pray and fast for our Heavenly Fathers guidance.
  • Weakness can become strengths: he taught us as he learned as a missionary, that as he fasted weekly the task became easier and he became closer to our Father.
  • Help the less fortunate: he reminded us to try our best to give as much as possible because its purpose isn't a duty, its a service to help and provide for those with less than ourselves.
