Virtue of the Week: LOYALTY
Article of Faith: 11TH "We claim the priviledge of worshiping Almighty God according to the dicates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may."
Scripture of the Week and Quote on Loyalty to Religion: "Choose you this day whom ye will serve...but as for me and my house, WE WILL SERVE THE LORD." ~Joshua 24:15
Quote of Loyalty to Self: "Oh Kings, be LOYAL to the royal within you!" ~William Shakespeare
Quote to Loyalty to Family: "The strength of a family, like the strength of an army, is in its LOYALTY to each other." ~Mario Puzo
Quote to Loyalty to Country: "A man's country is not a certain area of land, of mountains, river, and woods, but it is a principle; and patriotism is LOYALTY to that principle." ~George William Curtis
We divided the week up into daily focuses on loyalty such as loyalty to self, loyalty to family, loyalty to country, and loyalty to God. Each day we focused on each of these key points in having loyalty. We discussed how important it is to keep promises to yourself (such as making a choice now to go on a mission, or not to do drugs, and then when faced with that choice later in life, to stay true to our promise to ourselves and to remain loyal). We spoke about the importance of always remaining loyal to your family; to treat them better than you would treat your own friend....to give the upmost respect to your family that you are forever sealed to. We spoke about different ways to change our attitude toward our families and how we can show more loyalty in the day to day. We also focused on the loyalty that our great Founding Fathers had for the principle of loyalty to country!
