PS: Extra credit opportunity!

For those of you looking to get an additional day of attendance (and thus help your grade), log on to http://www.byu.tv/ and watch Elder Holland's Devotional given at BYU last week - it is an excellent talk. Give a 6-minute report on three things you learned (2 minutes per thing you learned) and take an extra day of attendance home in your pocket!

January 12-16

Class:

Our schedule for this coming week – we continue our journey through the Gospel of John. Thank you for studying these chapters before class to ensure we are prepared to be taught by the Spirit in class.

Monday, January 12: John 5
Tuesday, January 13: John 6
Wednesday, January 14: John 7
Thursday, January 15: John 8
Friday, January 16: Scripture Mastery in the house! (and Julie's B-day)

On related note, we have a great class but I mention two concerns:
CONCERN #1: We’re drifting a little later with our starting time of 6:30
SOLUTION #1: Our seminary start time could change to 6:20, then we’ll just start on time at 6:30…or everyone could make a more concerted effort to be on time.

CONCERN #2: We have make members of our class who are not regularly attending our class.
SOLUTION #2: Everybody can invite someone who is not coming to class regularly, to come to class

We will discuss the above on Monday. Have a great weekend, and be faithful.
