In Christ, Let us be One

Transcription

1 Let Us Remember Each one of us experiences religion uniquely None of us have walked in each other's shoes or had the exact same life experiences Each of us has a different comprehension of the gospel None of us have read exactly the same library of materials, which is why study of the scriptures becomes a valuable common basis for understanding one another Each of us has been chastised by the Lord in the Answer for Covenant and in subsequent revelations None of us desires to let our hearts remain divided from one another and divided from God Each of us recognizes our need to do better in using precept, reason, and persuasion in our conversations None of us has arrived at this point without facing some amount of rejection, loss and heartache Each of us desires to repent, receive a new heart and draw near to God None of us wants to use control or compulsion over others, each treasures persuasion and long suffering Each of us desires to be equal Each of us desires to know God Let us embrace one another with acceptance and love In Christ, Let us be One

5 Breakout Session Information: PURPOSE: Please understand the purpose of these breakouts is to invite and encourage class-led participation. What is shared is to be created by the participants themselves. Within the truths of Jesus Christ, Joseph Smith, and the Covenant being offered by God through Denver Snuffer, all are welcome to contribute supportive comments, prayers, and insight. SMALL GROUPS: Please help us accomplish our goal of achieving Small Groups so that increased group participation can occur. If you see a room or breakout is full, please go to your second choice if possible. FOLLOW THE SPIRIT: In addition to the earlier sign-up process, please also feel free to Follow the Spirit in relation to what breakouts you attend. We encourage you to ponder what you feel directed to do and say as the day unfolds. To be in the right place, with the right people, sharing truth about the Lord s Gospel is the primary point of this experience. Feel free to choose and create your own adventure this day. OUTSIDE OPTION: Facilitators please feel free to move your class outside if you wish. If you do so, and if applicable to your area, please end your class five minutes early so all chairs can be returned to the original location for the next session. CAMP CHAIRS: If you were able to bring your own personal camp chairs, just keep them with you as you move around the camp from session to session. For the Cedaredge Camp Chairs that we are renting, please leave them in their current locations and/or return them to the original spot if they are taken outside for your breakout. LAST SESSION: If you are facilitating or participating in the last session from 4:20 to 5:20 please take all of the Cedaredge Camp Chairs back to the Chapel or Dining Hall at the end of your breakout. CONSIDER The individual is a microcosm of the family. The family is a microcosm of the movement. The movement is a microcosm of Zion. Zion is a microcosm of Heaven on Earth. Heaven on Earth is a microcosm of God s Kingdom. What role could this conference play in our progression?
