Each week, we take the sacrament. It helps us remember Jesus Christ and promise to follow Him.
Before I take the sacrament, I can . . .
-
Sing a hymn
-
Watch the bread and water being prepared
-
Listen to the sacrament prayers
During the sacrament, I can . . .
-
Take the bread and water reverently
-
Think about what Jesus did for me and how much He loves me
-
Remember my baptismal covenant
After the sacrament, I can remember and follow Jesus all week long by . . .
-
Keeping His commandments
-
Being kind to others
-
Following promptings from the Holy Ghost
-
Asking myself, “What would Jesus do?”
