Meet Together Oft to Partake

In this week's Come, Follow Me reading, Paul emphasized the importance of gathering to take the sacrament in remembrance of the Savior.  Regularly coming together for this simple act unites us and provides a common healing that we need in the divisive world.

Paul wrote to the Corinthians:  "The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?  For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread."  In in Moroni, we read that the members "did meet together oft to partake ... in remembrance of the Lord Jesus."


Moroni 6:
 5 And the church did meet together oft, to fast and to pray, and to speak one with another concerning the welfare of their souls.
 6 And they did meet together oft to partake of bread and wine, in remembrance of the Lord Jesus.
