she said. “It shows that we’re open to different cultures.”

The Ba'hai branch of MORMONism CAN'T be that far away!

For BYU junior Ken Kenworthy, 22, the bitter herbs on the Passover table recall not only the suffering of the Israelites under Pharaoh, but also the past suffering of the Mormons. “Our early church history had a lot of persecution,”

OMG!!!!!!!!! Puh-leaze!

Jews have suffered from 400 years of bondage to Hitler's concentration camps and persecution around the world......... What in the heck do Mormons have to complain about? How the government stopped them from having polygamist marriages?

Honestly, do have they no shame?

Don’t worry, they’ll start another one.

Passover Seder

Living Word Ministries of Fort Walton Beach will host a Passover Seder Meal for Believers on April 18 at the Brooks–Beal Center, 100 Beale Parkway (across from Yacht Club Drive).

The Seder will begin at 6:30 p.m. The Seder meal is designed to show how each element of the traditional Passover Seder relates to the Messiah, Jesus, and was a picture and type of His atoning death, burial and resurrection. A specific menu and format for the Seder is used.

The mission of Living Word is “to teach and, therefore, remove the paganism and reconnect us to the biblical, Hebraic Roots of Christianity,” said Dr. Susan Werner, Bible teacher and ministry leader at Living Word.

The cost of the Seder meal is $15 per adult. Children under age 10 are free. Because space is limited, seating will be on a first-come, first-accepted basis.

For more details and to make reservations, call Living Word Ministries at 850-897-1726. ‘Come, Touch the Robe’

The Ecumenical Choir of Walton County will present “Come, Touch the Robe” at Christ the King Episcopal Church in Santa Rosa Beach on Palm Sunday, April 17, at 3 p.m. and Monday April 18, at 7 p.m.

The choir is made up of singers from diverse local church choirs, devoted to sharing their talent with the community. This production is enhanced by several local musicians.

The concert is free, but a free-will offering with all monies going to community outreach, will be collected. You may also bring a canned food item (or two) to share with those in need.

For questions, contact: Adele Armitage, Christ the King Episcopal Church, 480 N. Hwy 393, (located 1/2 mile North of U.S. Hwy. 98) at 850-267-3332.


For restaurant’s Passover Seder, tradition remains key ingredient $90.

Beth El LifeThe first night of Passover will be on April 8. By now you should have received your invitation to the Seder which will be held at Temple. Please make sure you send in your reservation as soon as possible, as seating is limited. Seder will begin promptly at 7:00 p.m. led by Rabbi Zukrow. Once again it is being catered by Appetite for Life and the menu looks wonderful.

The cost for adult members is $23.00 and non-members is $25.00.

Jewish military, college students, and children five to twelve years of age are $14.00 each.

Children four and under are free.

Babysitting is provided. Seating is limited so please make sure to respond early to ensure your reservation. Groups are welcome and tables can accommodate parties of ten (or six at a round table). We hope you will join your Temple family as we tell the Passover story and enjoy the symbolic Seder meal.

Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints “do celebrate, but it’s a minor celebration,” Wilson said. He surveyed approximately 500 people in six different LDS wards as well as scores of BYU students to determine the importance of the holiday to active church members.

“It’s almost completely usurped by general conference,” the annual gathering of top LDS leaders and members on the first weekend in April, he said. The two-day event includes sermons and music broadcast to millions of members worldwide, and it happens to fall on Easter weekend this year, as it does about 23 percent of the time.

“I tell my students not to take that as a slam,” Wilson said. “That’s what the restoration (of Christ’s gospel) is, with living prophets speaking to us. But in LDS remembrance, (the conference) totally overshadows Easter.”

The Practicing LDS each week is reminded in sacrament of what our Lord Jesus Christ our Savior and Redeemer did for us

NOT JUST ONCE A YEAR LIKE THE CHILDREN OF CONSTATNTINE

Doc & Cov 20

75 It is expedient that the church meet together often to partake of bread and wine in the remembrance of the Lord Jesus;

76 And the elder or priest shall administer it; and after this manner shall he administer it—he shall kneel with the church and call upon the Father in solemn prayer, saying:

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.

78 The manner of administering the wine—he shall take the cup also, and say:

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.

Also in Doc & Con 88

The Lord Jesus Christ continues to teach His saints

1–5, Faithful Saints receive that Comforter, which is the promise of eternal life;

6–13, All things are controlled and governed by the Light of Christ;

14–16, The Resurrection comes through the Redemption;

17–31, Obedience to celestial, terrestrial, or telestial law prepares men for those respective kingdoms and glories;

32–35, Those who will to abide in sin remain filthy still;

36–41, All kingdoms are governed by law;

42–45, God has given a law unto all things;

46–50, Man will comprehend even God;

51–61, The parable of the man sending his servants into the field and visiting them in turn;

62–73, Draw near unto the Lord, and ye will see his face;

74–80, Sanctify yourselves and teach one another the doctrines of the kingdom;

81–85, Every man who has been warned should warn his neighbor;

86–94, Signs, upheavals of the elements, and angels prepare the way for the coming of the Lord;

95–102, Angelic trumps call forth the dead in their order;

103–16, Angelic trumps proclaim the restoration of the gospel, the fall of Babylon, and the battle of the great God;

117–26, Seek learning, establish a house of God (a temple), and clothe yourselves with the bond of charity;

127–41, The order of the School of the Prophets is set forth, including the ordinance of washing of feet.

Oh Resty!

Are you preaching from the D&C's again?

Why don't SLC 'mormons' follow what is ETERNAL in D&C 132?

Why does HEADQUARTERS in SLC EXCOMMUNICATE mormons who Do?

WHY is following the LAW of the Untied States Government more important to SLC 'mormons' that following the LAW of GOD found in D&C 132?

How to Take the Sacrament

The MORMONs evidently have had new REVELATION of the old hymn: "When I See The Blood"

It must be now...

..."When I See The Water"

Hi resty...

What Holy Week plans are ahead for your ward and stake? For Ash Wednesday? For Maundy Thursday? For Good Friday?

What kind of beautiful and special program will you have on Easter Sunday? Anything different? Will the name of Jesus Christ replace the name of Joseph Smith as the center of attention?

It sure is odd to see all the outreach by the mormons in the past few years...the Jews and the Muslims get a lot of attention, but I haven't see any "reaching out" to Evangelical Christians...I bet you can furnish lots of links and pix for that, right?

There are many Christians who partake of Communion on a weekly basis (and none use water for the wine). If mormons did outreach to Christians, they might be aware of that.
