Are You Prepared for Sunday School on this Super Sunday?



Thought of the week:

"We are commanded 'to give thanks in all things.' So isn’t it better to see with our eyes and hearts even the small things we can be thankful for, rather than magnifying the negative in our current condition?"
—Dieter F. Uchtdorf, "Of Regrets and Resolutions",

Class Review
 
16-18 class Jan 27 Review
 
We talked about how we can see Heavenly Father's hand in our lives. We learned about His tender mercies, who can receive them and how to recognize them in our own lives. 
 
The challenge  this week is to ask ourselves each night how we have seen Heavenly Fathers hand in our life today and write down what we learn.

We will discuss what Heavenly Fathers plan is, and how it guides our lives. We will talk about the importance of learning throughout our lives and how our life experiences are part of the plan. We can use the knowledge we gain to bless others lives.

We will begin with a brief discussion of the Plan on Salvation and it's significance to class members in their lives.  We will also discuss the role of life-long learning in our eternal progression; wether in school settings, work, or in the gospel.  We will talk about their ideas of ways to make learning a more significant and enjoyable part of life.  Class members can prepare by giving some thought to these points and come with ideas to share and discuss.
 
Gospel Doctrine

We will be studying the Lord's roll in bringing the Book of Mormon and our responsibility to use and share it with others. As the week moves forward think about what roll the Book of Mormon plays in your life and bring those experiences with you to class.
