Relationships are some of the very best and most beautiful parts of this life. They reflect the heart of our God in so many ways — reminding us of how loved we are, encouraging us in moments of weakness, uplifting our weary spirits, challenging us to go deeper, and inviting us into the fullness of life. While relationships won’t always be easy, they are always worth it. We weren’t created to live this life alone!
The church provides a safe haven from the stresses of life. We can better worship God and love our neighbors when we regularly attend worship sessions. It’s an ideal technique to help us put Jesus at the heart of our life and gives us a spiritual boost.
A better you is possible because of God. The church could benefit from your input. Welcome!
The Bible says that “for where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”
Luke 18:20
Each local church has its own timetable for services. You can count on a standard schedule, though, with one large meeting for all participants and one smaller session for those of different ages or with different interests.
It only took me one Sunday at my new church to decide I needed to be there every week. There was an unmistakable air of joy among the locals that I had never felt before.

Sacrament meeting is the name for the large group gatherings. Every week, members of the congregation gather to share in a time of worship through music, prayer, and sermons (sometimes called “talks”). But the sacrament (or Communion) is the highlight of the gathering.

The Sacrament: Further Reading
Hymns and music
Feeling closer to God is a direct result of singing praises to the Lord for the salvation He has provided. Three or four hymns are sung by the entire congregation during a regular sacrament gathering. A choir, a small group, or a soloist may also perform some additional musical numbers. Some of the hymns, such as “Nearer, My God, to Thee” and “How Great Thou Art,” may be familiar, but you’ll definitely pick up some new ones as well. You can even sing out of tune if you like! Worship with us and sing loudly anyway.
The righteous’ song is a supplication to God, as the saying goes.
Scripture: D&C 25:12
Sharing Yestimonies
Regular sermons are not given on the first Sunday of each month. Instead, anyone in the church can take the microphone and share their thoughts on the gospel from the pulpit. Our own views and convictions can be fortified by hearing the testimonies of others and experiencing the indwelling of God’s Spirit.
