The church is doing a pilot program of sunday school online... soooo maybe that is a thing....
That is interesting source?
I think with technology stuff like this should be more common. Virtual classes, all you need is a priest for sacrament. Don't know why it's not here yet.

I am the source, it is happening in my ward. Right now they are doing it for shutins @ 2 pm on zoom.
Yep, they could just have each family have bread and water individually and have a priest pray over it for sacrament if they wanted.

My prediction:
Angelic visitations live on the camera for the whole world's viewing shortly followed by shouts of "deep fake" from every quarter. Then the real tribulation starts.

It would be a blessing to many people who are unable to attend meetings or full meetings due to whatever circumstance. Many churches broadcast their services, we could too.

I’m wondering why we have the Sacrament every week.
Back in the day.. Jesus instituted the Sacrament at the last supper. Did the original church often, or seldom partake of the Sacrament?
How about the early restored church?
Did members partake often or seldom?
I know when I was in the Army, I didn’t get to partake every week. Sometimes a month or two went by.
When the opportunity came to bless and partake, it was a deeply significant event.

Originally communion or sacrament was done once a month. It was also physically administered by priests. These are practices which continue to this day in the Community of Christ/RLDS church.

They'll finally provide fish, or steak and potatoes and salad for food at institute instead of cereal and tortilla chips.
Lol jk I dont know. I feel like what is going to be said will help people and inspire.
Something will be said that will only be caught and understood by people close to the spirit and with soft hearts.

From what I've heard it is a little different, but really good. I haven't attended my self. Though in leadership meeting the other day it was discussed a little bit. They mentioned that A lot of them are old people so they are like "wait I gotta use the bathroom" hahs adn there are only 4 on there so far. I think it just started, so we are actually going out to invite other shut ins to the sunday school.

Yes the “hearts failing” and hard hearted-ness is increasing.
Probably why we were instructed to prepare so we can be in a good place to receive whatever might be taking place.

Unless it's cancelled as far as a public meeting, and only the speakers with their talks are broadcast.
