Last week a good friend (Melissa Brown) gave me a heads up about an article she read online at Religion News Service. The author (Jana Reiss) spoke about her frustration with the Church’s new rules regarding Sacrament (aka, Communion), during the pandemic.
She pointed out the new rules meant that she, and millions of other LDS women, through no fault of their own, would fall short of qualifying to partake of the Lord’s Supper. To read her article in full, see ReligionNewsService.com. (more…)

Today we’re looking at the LDS version of Communion, or Sacrament, as it is known in Mormonism. Because nothing in Mormonism is straightforward, you’ll find multiple layers to this ordinance. I’ve tried to lessen the confusion by highlighting the bottom line in each of their explanations of how this works.

Colossians 2:16; “Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in
respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days.”
Today’s dilemma comes courtesy of Today in Mormon History. When I came across this interesting piece I was reminded of an article I read in the latest National Geographic Magazine.

This next lesson goes into Moses freeing the Israelites from bondage, the plagues in Egypt and the Passover. It takes the class through the first fourteen chapters rather quickly without taking the time to truly study what God has to teach us from these events. I can’t believe I used to think this was an acceptable way to study God’s word, especially when it comes to a Sunday school class. I guess sitting under pastors who preach expository has spoiled me. 🙂

Earlier today Melissa sent me an e-mail sharing her thoughts from the Bible study she’s doing right now and because I believe this is such a classic example of the way Mormons think we’re posting our e-mail exchange with our readers!

Thought of the Day about Mormonism and the Sacrament
I encourage everyone to go to the link below and check out the two pictures that rotate on this page from the Church’s website. http://www.lds.org/ensign?lang=eng
One is a picture of bread and water while the other is a picture of Joe Smith kneeling in prayer, arms tightly folded while people are laying hands on his head and praying.
My focus on this set of pictures for this quick thought today is the bread and water. Notice the bread is filled with yeast and what in that water looks like the blood of Christ?
