4 What are these used for?

5 Today s lesson is about the sacrament.

6 What is happening in this picture?

7 This is a picture of Jesus Christ and his Apostles.

8 Can anyone point out Jesus in this picture?

9 Let s listen to the story of the last supper as found in Luke 22:7-20 Read It Narrated Slides Watch Video

10 Jesus Christ and his Apostles were celebrating a special Jewish holy day called the feast of the Passover.

11 Jesus knew that this feast would be the last meal he ate with the Apostles.

12 We often refer to this meal as the Last Supper.

13 Why was it important for the Apostles to remember Jesus?

14 What did Jesus give the Apostles to help them remember him?

15 Let s read 22:19 Luke

16 19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.

17 This scripture tells us that the Savior broke some bread into small pieces, blessed it, and gave it to the Apostles to eat. He told them that the bread was to remind them of his body and that they were to remember him when they ate it.

18 After each Apostle had eaten a piece of bread, Jesus blessed a drink made from grapes and gave it to the Apostles He told them that the drink was to remind them of his blood. When they drank it, they should remember that Jesus died so they could live with Heavenly Father again after they died.

19 Jesus knew that if the Apostles would remember him and his teachings, it would help them choose the right.

20 What do we call the bread and drink that Jesus gave to his Apostles at the Last Supper?

21 Why did Jesus give the sacrament to the Apostles?

22 We take the sacrament just as Jesus Apostles did, except we use water instead of the drink Jesus gave his Apostles.

23 When do we take the sacrament?

24 The meeting when we take the sacrament is called sacrament meeting because the sacrament is the most important part of that meeting.

25 Why do we take the sacrament?

26 How can the sacrament help us remember to choose the right?

27 Before the sacrament is passed, special prayers are said. The prayers tell Heavenly Father some things we promise to do. Listen carefully while we read the prayer that is said over the bread, so you can discover two promises we make to Heavenly Father when we take the sacrament.

28 Doctrine and Covenants 20:77 77 O God, the Eternal Father, we ask thee in the name of thy Son, Jesus Christ, to bless and sanctify this bread to the souls of all those who partake of it, that they may eat in remembrance of the body of thy Son, and witness unto thee, O God, the Eternal Father, that they are willing to take upon them the name of thy Son, and always remember him and keep his commandments which he has given them; that they may always have his Spirit to be with them. Amen.

29 witness unto thee means we are making a promise to Heavenly Father.

30 What two things do we promise to do?

31 Each time we take the sacrament we are promising to remember Jesus and keep his commandments.

32 The picture shows a statue of Jesus Christ

33 In the background is a painting of some of the planets and stars.

34 What does this picture make you think about?

35 During the sacrament we should think about the Savior and his love for us. We can remember pictures of Jesus we have seen, such as the one just shown, and we can also think about stories of Jesus.

36 One of my favorite stories about Jesus is...

37 Does anyone have a story they would like to share with the class about Jesus?

38 When we think during the sacrament about Jesus and how much he loves us, we will be remembering him.

39 We also know many songs about Jesus Christ.

40 Although we don t sing aloud while the sacrament is being passed, we can think of the words to the songs to help us remember Jesus.

41 Let s sing together I Think When I Read That Sweet Story

42 I Think When I Read That Sweet Story 1. I think when I read that sweet story of old, When Jesus was here among men, How he called little children like lambs to his fold; I should like to have been with him then. 2. I wish that his hands had been placed on my head, That his arms had been thrown around me, That I might have seen his kind look when he said, "Let the little ones come unto me." Words: Jemima Luke, Music: Leah Ashton Lloyd,

43 When we are reverent during the sacrament, it is easier to think about Jesus.

44 How can we be reverent during the sacrament?

45 Here is a list of ways I came up with *Listen to the sacrament prayers and say amen at the end. * Don t bother our parents or other people. They need to think about Jesus too. * Put away pencils, books, or other items before the sacrament. * Be quiet and stay in our seats. * Think about Jesus by remembering stories and songs about him, his love for us, and the things he taught. * Take the piece of bread and cup of water nearest to us. * Put the sacrament cups back without playing with them.

46 Pretend you are sitting in sacrament meeting and it is time for the sacrament.

47 I want you to show the answers to the following questions without talking:

48 What can you do with your mouth to show you are thinking about Jesus?

49 What can you do with your head to show you are reverent?

50 What can you do with your arms and hands to show you are thinking about Jesus?

51 What can you do with your feet to show you are reverent?

52 Let s have everyone sit quietly and think about Jesus Christ, just as you should while the sacrament is being passed. (Go to next slide to begin quiet period)

97 Luke 22: Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed. 8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat. 9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? 10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in.

98 11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples? 12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready. 13 And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover. 14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.

99 15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer: 16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. 17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves: 18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.

100 19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. 20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.
