Welcome to the Book of Mormon Club Summer Reading Challenge

Welcome to the Book of Mormon Club on blog! The challenge for the summer is to read all 531 pages of the Book of Mormon before school starts again in August/September.

The Book of Mormon is another testament of Jesus Christ. It is an account of the people who lived in the ancient Americas. If you read this book you can come closer to Christ and find greater joy and peace in your life.

If you don't have a copy of the book you can access it online at this link: http://scriptures.lds.org/en/bm/contents There is also an option to listen to it, but you may need to download a plug-in.


Enjoy your summer reading!
