Schedule: February 1-5; great missionary lessons in Alma!

We continue learning about great missionary moments in Alma this week. These important lessons of the Book of Mormon help us realize how to teach with respect, purpose and power. We will have more comments and quotes from modern-day prophets about how Ammon, Aaron and his brethren taught and testified...and the examples they are for us today! And don't forget Abish (pictured here). We'll learn about her on Monday!

Monday: Alma 19-20

Tuesday: Alma 21-22

Wednesday: Alma 23-26

Thursday: Alma 28-29

Friday: Alma 30

We will continue the excellent Scripture Mastery Talks this week. Special kudos to Paul and Tiffany for starting us off on such an excellent path. I love hearing these talks, and the fantastic levels of understanding they offer each of us. We will have three more talks this week, starting with Rachel on Monday. As the year whizzes by, are you memorizing all 25 Book of Mormon scripture mastery verses? There are tons of resources to help you...ask your parents or friends to help at home. You cannot learn them unless you are putting time into it outside of class. Check out this great memorization tool and game I found that can help you memorize on-line!

I love you, your examples of faithfulness, and watching your testimonies of the Book of Mormon grow! Be Ambassadors of the Book of Mormon!

Love,

What can we learn from Ammon's meeting with Lamoni's father? Read in Alma 20 to find out!

A New Year - the Book of Mormon in 2010! (Schedule for January 11-15)

Dear Students:

Thank you for a wonderful start to 2010 last week. We completed Mosiah with a wonderful group of discussions that helped us draw important lessons from some powerful words and scriptures.



This week we begin our time in the Book of Alma. This book covers a short period (40 years) but has some amazing missionary moments and is sure to be one of your favorite memories of your Book of Mormon study this year.



Be sure to do your reading in advance and come to class (6:30a.m. sharp!) ready to learn, share, explore, and prayerfully learn what the Lord wants us to understand.



Review the chapters in your Seminary Student Manual that will help you learn and grow. I am attaching a link to those chapters here.



Monday: Mosiah re-cap and Alma 1
Tuesday: Alma 2-4
Wednesday: Alma 5+6
Thursday: Alma 7
Friday: Alma 8



We will update the schedule and send it to you, your parents, and leaders later this week. In the meantime, thank you for your examples of faithfulness, your loving service to others and your excellence in studying (and likening!) the scriptures.

You're amazing.



Best,
-Bro. Sherinian
