Schedule: March 22-26 (Helaman 7-12)

What better way to celebrate Spring than with the wonderful lessons found in Helaman 7-12.

We are going to learn about what is important, how to embrace the Lord and not the world, and how the words of the Prophets can bring us closer to the Savior.

Read the Book of Mormon daily and study these chapters in Helaman to find out more of what they have in store for you.

Also, check out this latest message for youth on lds.org...it is an inspirational message from President Monson about what is important in life and how to make the most of this journey.

Be true and faithful! Share your testimonies of the Book of Mormon and watch them grow.

Love,
Bro. Sherinian

March 8-12: We are All Enlisted! Alma 46-63 cont...

We continue this week with our feast of missionary moments of courage and faith in Alma 46-58..and beyond thru 63! Thank you for your diligent study of Alma to help us understand some important concepts we reviewed last week. If you haven't done so already, please tell your parents or friends what you learned about:
--the principles of physical battles that can be applied to strengthening ourselves spiritually (remember how Capt. Moroni helped his soldiers win the battle, and how he dealt with the Lamanites?);
--characteristics of a righteous and effective leader that we can emulate;

--recognizing the protection that comes from making and keeping covenants;
--seeing how others find happiness in righteous living, even when surrounded by wickedness, destruction (remember our discussion of wars and rumors of wars?).

With these principles solid in our toolbox (and our testimonies!), we will delve into two of some of the greatest parts of the Book of Mormon.

Monday: The Title of Liberty!


Wednesday: Review Alma 53-58

Thursday: Alma 59-61

Friday: Alma Review

Remember to review our latest scripture mastery verse:


Remember to review these chapters in your Student Manual where there are great maps, helps and resources to help guide your reading. Daily reading is our armor ("sword, buckler and shield"...remember?)
I love your testimonies and your willingness to share what you know, express what you are seeking to learn, and rely on the Lord as you grow. What an exciting time in your lives. I am so proud to be able to start the day with such fine examples - true soldiers of truth and kindness who love the Savior.
Love,
-Bro. Sherinian
