This was a great discussion. I really loved the direction it went, and the knowledge Rodney L. Meldrum brought to the table. It started with Rodney sharing his conversion as a young man then went into a discussion about Book of Mormon DNA presented by the mother of a young man in his ward.

All you need to do is pick the winners.
In the lesson, the teacher made the statement that old Biff made to young Biff; “All I have to do is bet on a winner.”
Sacrament Prayer
I had the rare experience of blessing the sacrament with the priests a few weeks back.  They ask people to help occasionally when there are not enough priests present. Even then, there are so many active members I think it has been 10 years since I was involved with blessing the sacrament
