The lesson this week was from the Gospel Principles manual - Chapter 21: The Gift of the Holy Ghost taught by Lisa. She asked that each of us take a few minutes on Wednesday at 1pm to listen to some relaxing music (without words). This will help us slow down for a minute and really listen for the promptings of the Holy Ghost. We were encouraged to follow any promptings we receive.

Next week's lesson is on the article "Two Lines of Communication" by Elder Dallin H. Oakes from the October 2010 General Conference.
