Mosiah 2:16

Behold, I say unto you that because I said unto you that I had

spent my days in your service, I do not desire to boast,

for I have only been in the service of God. 

"SUNDAY THEN MONDAY"

 

The supermarket is closed and the gate

 is locked because it is Sunday.

 

The local market is empty because it is Sunday.

 

The Meridian Store is the first business to open

in the world.  It is on the International

Date line.  It is bolted shut because

it is Sunday.

 

 

Six day a week you can walk down the streets of Nagara  and enjoy

exploring the shops and visiting with the people. But on Sunday

everything changes.  Nagar becomes quiet. The shops are closed

and the people are either in the church houses or

visiting family members in the village.

 

D&C 59:9-10

And that thou mayest more fully keep thyself unspotted from the world, thou shalt

go to the house of prayer and offer up they sacraments upon my holy day;

For verily this is a day appointed unto you to rest from your labors, and to pay

thy devotions unto the Most High;
