Sacrament Meeting and the Sacrament - Elder Oaks, Oct 2008

by Dallin H. Oaks
October 2008 General Conference

"The ordinance of the sacrament makes the sacrament meeting the most sacred and important meeting in the Church. It is the only Sabbath meeting the entire family can attend together. Its content in addition to the sacrament should always be planned and presented to focus our attention on the Atonement and teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ."

"Taking upon Us the Name of Jesus Christ" - Dallin H. Oaks, Apr 1985

by Dallin H. Oaks
April 1985 General Conference

"It is significant that when we partake of the sacrament we do not witness that we take upon us the name of Jesus Christ. We witness that we are willing to do so. (See D&C 20:77.) The fact that we only witness to our willingness suggests that something else must happen before we actually take that sacred name upon us in the most important sense."
