Be Thou An Example!

Article of Faith: #1 "We believe that men will be punished for their own sins and not for Adam's transgression."

Quote #1: "The intensity of our desire to share (and live) the gospel is a great indicator of the extent of our personal conversion." ~Dallin H. Oaks

Quote #2: "There's one responsibility which no man or woman can evade, that's the responsibility of personal influence. It is what you are, NOT what you pretend to be, that matters." ~David O. McKay

Scripture: 1Timothy 4:12 "Be an example of the believers, in word, in
conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity."

For our school devotional we spent the week immersed in our scripture, "Be an example of the believers..." We were introduced to amazing young people who have changed other peoples lives in a very profound way, by being a true example of Christ-like love and service, and by doing so have shown by their actions that they truly are "believers" of Christ. We also learned a new songs about this scripture. You may have heard your children humming or singing it. It's a has a VERY catchy tune, but more importantly a VERY important message! It has quickly become one of the children's favorites and you will likely be hearing it in the program!!!
