Julie Hogue did a last minute fill in as our teacher on Sunday and did a terrific job. The lesson was titled "The Holy Priesthood --for the Blessing of God's children.
President George Albert Smith asked the question during a conference talk, "Do our sons understand the importance of the priesthood and what an important blessing this is." What can we do to help them prepare to have the Priesthood. Family Home Evening is a good place to start and also talks in Sacrament Meeting.
Jesus Christ restored divine authority to the earth. Then came the apostasy. Joseph Smith was given the Priesthood in our day by men who held it anciently. Peter, James, and John conferred the Priesthood upon Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdrey.
All men who are worthy may hold the Priesthood. It is a precious gift. The power and authority of God can be found only in His true church.
The question was asked, "What does the Priesthood mean to you personally? How does it help you develop?"
Priesthood ordinances are essential for us to enter the Celestial Kingdom.. We must be worthy to have them.
