We're glad you're here! Please feel free to join in as much or as little as you feel comfortable with.

Here is some information to help you follow along in our sacrament meeting worship.
Presiding: The bishop presides unless a member of the stake presidency, an Area Seventy in his area, or a General Authority attends.

Welcome & Announcements
Opening Hymn: Hymns are found in the green hymnal. Hymns-For Home and Church can be found in the white binder. The Church is currently updating our hymnal and releasing new hymns a few at a time - the green hymnal is the old hymn book, and the white binder includes the new hymns. Please join in singing as you're comfortable.
Invocation: The opening prayer. At the end of the prayer, the congregation joins together in saying "amen" after the person offering the prayer says "amen."
Ward Business
Each member of the ward may be asked to serve in a calling, or an official capacity as part of the ward. When people are either sustained in a new calling or released from their current calling, members of the ward are invited to raise their right hand to sustain or express thanks for their service.
Sacrament Hymn: This hymn help us begin to focus our minds on our Savior and Redeemer, Jesus Christ.
Administration of the Sacrament
The sacrament is an ordinance Jesus Christ has asked us to partake of weekly. Its purpose is to help us renew our baptismal covenants, to facilitate an important step of repentance, and to help us draw the power of Jesus Christ's atonement into our lives to whatever capacity we are seeking His help with.
First the bread and then the water will be blessed, and young men holding the Aaronic priesthood will pass trays through the congregation so everyone who wishes has a chance to partake of the bread and water. You may partake or pass the tray along as you are comfortable.
Throughout this experience, all in attendance have the most meaningful experience when they think about Jesus Christ in any way that helps us feel closer to Him, and perhaps prayerfully consider their life as Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ inspire. It may feel quiet in the room, but hopefully this is a time where those in attendance, including you, can feel the love our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ have for you.
Speakers: On most Sundays, there will be one to four speakers asked to share messages. On Fast Sundays that occur once a month, it is a Fast and Testimony Meeting where anyone is invited to the pulpit to share their testimony of Jesus Christ and His restored Church.
Closing Hymn:
Benediction: The closing prayer. At the end of the prayer, the congregation joins together in saying "amen" after the person offering the prayer says "amen."
