Understanding the Sacrament Art Journal Entry

As I was looking through the July 2017 Ensign an article about the Sacrament stuck out to me. Reading through the paragraphs I was able to make connections that I haven’t realized in the past about the sacrament and the Savior. Elder Dallin H. Oaks said, “ The ordinance of the sacrament makes the sacrament meeting the most sacred and important meeting in the Church.’’ Reading through this short article taught me a lot about how I am able to make the sacrament more personal and relatable to me. I have a journal that is labeled as my Art Journal.

This is a sketch book from Michaels


My art journal is full of art that I like, and then I write and add personal touches to whatever I am studying. Below is the entry I made today after studying the Sacrament.



This is another example of an entry I have in the art journal. I love this journal because it enables me to create. When I take the time to really think about and sketch out what I am learning it seems to stick better.





October 2008 “Sacrament Meeting and Sacrament” by Elder Dallin H. Oaks is the talk that I read and shared the quoted above from. https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2008/10/sacrament-meeting-and-the-sacrament?lang=eng
