From our Lesson -
Throughout history, God has associated certain mighty works with the Sabbath. These mighty works include the Creation (see Genesis 2:1–3), the exodus of the children of Israel from Egypt (see Deuteronomy 5:15), and the Savior’s Resurrection (see John 20:1–19; Acts 20:7). --We invite you to read these passages of scripture and ponder the following questions. -- What are some of the mighty works that God has done for you? How can we remember these things on the Sabbath day?

***Also, those of you who have the Gospel Library app there is a "Light The World" folder on the front page. If you click on it, it has a list of the 25 days and for each day it has a short summary of an idea of how to Light The World for that day, and also a 1-2 minute video to inspire you in your efforts. We encourage you to watch this short video to start your day. (These can also be found at LDS.org )
Suggestion Box Reminder --Sisters, with the new curriculum that we will be implementing next year for our Relief Society lessons, the First Sunday of each month will be a discussion of topics of concern for the sisters and families in our ward and area. --As a presidency, we are seeking your input. These discussions are to help YOU and we need to know what topics are on your mind. Please write something up and put in the suggestion box in RS or feel free to contact one of the presidency by phone, text or e mail. We value your input.
