PRIMARY PRESIDENCY · HEADLINING THIS WEEK

SCHOOL
OF ROCK

Talent show tonight. Choir tomorrow.
The carpool karaoke years have prepared us for this.

The Primary presidency has traded the quiet sign for a guitar solo. They already know how to work a room where half the audience needs a snack, so this feels like a natural career move. Tonight: the ward talent show. Tomorrow: church at 10:30 and choir afterward. Please keep the air guitar out of the chapel.

Sunday, September 20 · 10:30am

Sunday’s set list

Second hour: Sunday School and EQ/RS/YM/YW.

Music: Dustin Fuller and Ella Orsak.

TONIGHT · SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19

Tonight’s headliner: you.

Ward Talent Show & Dinner
6:00pm · Stake Center

The Greatest Show in Dripping Springs takes the stage tonight. Come for dinner, stay for the hidden talents, and give every act the kind of applause usually reserved for a child finally finding both shoes.

All ages and talents are welcome, onstage or at a display table. No act? Join the fan club. Every band needs people who clap, and this one also needs people who eat dinner.

Tuesday, September 22 · 7:00pm

Ministering

Check on your bandmates.

Before the week gets loud, check on someone you haven’t heard from. Ask a real question and make time for the answer. “How did your appointment go?” beats a group-text guitar GIF.

Starting Sunday, September 20

The band is getting back together.

Right after church · Relief Society room

Ward choir starts up again this Sunday. Your car has enjoyed the solo career. Now come sing with other people. Head to the RS room right after church for practice.

“A Marvellous Work and a Wonder”

Isaiah 13–14; 22; 24–30; 35

Isaiah warns about pride and turning away from God, but he also points to healing, restoration, and Jesus Christ. These chapters remind us that what is broken does not have to stay broken. The Lord keeps inviting His people back.

Talk about it: What do these chapters teach us about trusting the Lord with something we cannot fix on our own?
