&lt;p>Please take special care during the following week. The time change
this year has caused a much higher than normal build up of energy in
the earth. Numerologically 20260308 factors into 2⋅2⋅3⋅19⋅88861
which, with its triple repeated digit in the largest factor, is rather
inauspicious. Because of this dire prediction, numerologists and
earthquake-aticians have been trying to slowly bleed off energy before
the time change this morning put extra strain on the system, which is
why we’ve experienced so many earthquakes in recent weeks. However,
the energy buildup was even higher than predicted, so don’t be
surprised if we experience more earthquakes in the next week or so, as
earthquake-aticians ply their trade: trying to release the energy in
small, unharmful quakes. If they mess up, however, we could be in for
a real whopper of a quake (known amongst experts as a WoaQ). This
fall, 20261101 factors into 7⋅2894443 which also has a triple repeated
digit, so we are definitely in for a rough ride this year. Until
further notice, sleep with a Sacrament Program under your pillow.
This will prevent you from dying in the event of your roof falling on
top of you&lt;sup id="fnref:1">&lt;a href="#fn:1" class="footnote-ref" role="doc-noteref">1&lt;/a>&lt;/sup>.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2026-03-01</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-03-01/</link><pubDate>Sun, 01 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-03-01/</guid><description>&lt;p>The state of Vermont holds a special place in church history, not just
because Joseph Smith Jr. was born in Sharon, Vermont, but because the
first Sacrament Program factory was built in Burlington, Vermont in
early 1870. Alfred Rosewater Peabody Sherman III built the factory
there expecting to make a large profit buying cheap paper from the
East coast, printing Sacrament Programs, and shipping them to Utah via
the recently finished Transcontinental Railroad. Unfortunately for
ARPS (as his friends called him), he had trouble securing space on the
railroad given the high demand for transcontinental shipping.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2026-02-22</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-02-22/</link><pubDate>Sun, 22 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-02-22/</guid><description>&lt;p>Have you ever left your Sacrament Program in your pocket with loose
change, and noticed some time later that it had turned pink, or even
red? This is a process known as pecuniary roseation and is thought to
be a natural defense on the part of the Sacrament Program to avoid
mixing the things of Caesar with the things of God. Scientists still
don’t understand the mechanisms behind this phenomenon, but it has
been noted in stories all around the world. One of the earliest of
such stories took place far from the Holy Land.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2026-02-15</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-02-15/</link><pubDate>Sun, 15 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-02-15/</guid><description>&lt;p>Everyone has heard of the Feast of St. Valentine, but fewer people
know the interesting history. It started when a misunderstanding was
printed on a Sacrament Program. In the year 496 the ward clerk was
preparing the Sacrament Program for a special meeting in which
St. Valentine was visiting the local congregation. Instead of “Come
Feast upon the words of Christ with St. Valentine” he wrote “Come to
the Feast of St. Valentine with the words of Christ”. As with most
potlucks in which main and side dishes are not assigned, it ended up
all being desserts with pink frosting and candy hearts with little
messages. Luckily, St. Valentine (despite his name meaning “healthy”)
was a portly man—very fond of honey and other sweets—and so he ate
energetically and with effusive praise. That caused several of the
women in the congregation to be shot with cupid’s arrow, so to speak,
when he praised their cooking. And that started the holiday as we
know it.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2026-02-08</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-02-08/</link><pubDate>Sun, 08 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-02-08/</guid><description>&lt;p>In the summer of 1899, Sacrament Program Distributors (Saccies as they
were called) went on strike demanding fair working conditions, a pay
increase, and basic human dignity. They were led by the charismatic
duo of Kid Water and Little Boy Bread. Though the strike was long and
bloody, it ultimately led to Lorenzo Snow granting the strikers’
demands, despite the financial hardship that the church was
experiencing at the time. These events ultimately gave rise to his
famous “Windows of Heaven” speech.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2026-02-01</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-02-01/</link><pubDate>Sun, 01 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-02-01/</guid><description>&lt;p>There comes a time in which every Sacrament Program must leave the
comfort and safety of the printer where it was born and venture out
into the cold, unforgiving world of the ward members’ hands. There
they might be written on and mistreated, or they might be perused with
love and appreciation. It’s impossible to know beforehand what
vicissitudes await those Sacrament Programs who are brave enough to
take the world head-on, but the Sacrament Program which attempts to
stay forever in the warm embrace of its mother printer often ends up
as a paper jam.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2026-01-11</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-01-11/</link><pubDate>Sun, 11 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-01-11/</guid><description>&lt;p>Fun Sacrament Program Facts:&lt;/p>
&lt;p>#212: Women are 47% more likely to look at a Sacrament Program during
Sacrament Meeting, but in the coveted 46–47 demographic, the trend
reverses and men use Sacrament Programs 28% more. That’s why the
niche genre Sacrament Promance will likely remain a niche genre
despite polling well amongst heavy Sacrament Program users.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2026-01-04</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-01-04/</link><pubDate>Sun, 04 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2026-01-04/</guid><description>&lt;p>Around the time of 100 BC an important change took place in ancient
Judaism. The style of Sacrament Program changed from 100% natural
fibers that were readily available (papyrus, cedars of Lebanon,
gopherwood, etc.) to more expensive woods (frankincense and myrrh
trees) as well as metals (gold) and synthetic fibers (nylon, rayon,
cotton-poly blend). That’s the main reason for the difference in name
of the parts of the bible: “Old Testament” referred to the more
traditional Covenant (aka Testament) while “New Testament” refers to
the newer Covenant. The Sacrament Program was the most common
covenant for the peoples of that age and so the change in materials
led to the change in name (and lots of strife amongst different
factions if we are being honest). As we study the Old Testament this
year, make sure to reflect on what the Sacrament Programs would have
felt like during that time.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2025-12-21</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-12-21/</link><pubDate>Sun, 21 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-12-21/</guid><description>&lt;p>As we approach Christmas this year, let us remember some of the
symbols of the season. This year, let’s focus on the Tannenbaum, aka
the Christmas Tree. The Christmas Tree originated in Judea, a mere 32
years after the death of Christ. At the time it was made of recycled
Sacrament Programs and was used only as a place to hold “Sub For
Santa” signups. It was another 147 years before people started to put
ornaments on the tree. And it took all the way until 982 a.d. in
modern day Norway, before an evergreen tree (there is still scholarly
debate over the species) was used to replace the Sacrament Program
tree due to a dearth Sacrament Programs in the recently evangelized
area. The fresh smell of the tree quickly won over adherents because
used Sacrament Programs could be a bit musty, or as the locals said,
“stunk of civilization”&lt;sup id="fnref:1">&lt;a href="#fn:1" class="footnote-ref" role="doc-noteref">1&lt;/a>&lt;/sup>. The rest, as they say, is history.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2025-12-14</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-12-14/</link><pubDate>Sun, 14 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-12-14/</guid><description>&lt;p>I hope you’re all looking forward to our festive, limited edition
Sacrament Programs, made from sweet smelling evergreen needles. If
you hold your phone close to your nose (but not too close—the aroma
can be rather strong), close your eyes, and inhale slowly you should
be able to smell the electrons which have been sustainably harvested
from genuine Utah pine trees. The paper programs were made from fir
trees from the Pacific Northwest, and will smelly slightly different.
The Zoom meeting still uses Eucalyptus electrons, sorry. Please let
church headquarters know which scent you prefer so that next year we
can source both of them from the same place.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2025-11-30</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-11-30/</link><pubDate>Sun, 30 Nov 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-11-30/</guid><description>&lt;p>Saintly Sunday Sale — Up to 90% off selected Sacrament Programs!&lt;/p>

Cider. First gather 1 pound of dried Sacrament Programs. Cut off any
damaged or diseased parts. Soak them in water overnight and then
crumple them into loose balls. Place them in a cider press and
squeeze as tightly as possible. Let them sit at full squeeze until
liquid quits flowing. Collect the resulting cider which should be a
deep, rich, red color. The cider will keep in the refrigerator for up
to 20 minutes, or can last multiple hours if frozen. Unused cider
should be taken to your bishopric for proper disposal.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2025-11-16</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-11-16/</link><pubDate>Sun, 16 Nov 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-11-16/</guid><description>&lt;p>Sacrament Programs were some of the very first things printed with
lithography, a process using a specially prepared stone (rather than
metal type) to print a book or pamphlet. The quality is better than
metal type and can also be more efficient. It’s rumored that the
Sacrament Programs for the Salt Lake 777-th ward (the ward the
apostles attend) are, to this day, printed using pieces of the
original tablets Moses received on the mountain. The ones that Moses
destroyed, not the lesser 10 commandments we have in our bibles. This
process of printing Sacrament Programs is a sacred ordinance known as
the baptism by earth. Many presume that the baptism by air is what
Joseph Smith alluded to with “he will yet reveal many great and
important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God,” given that the
baptisms of water and fire (and later earth) had already been
revealed.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2025-11-09</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-11-09/</link><pubDate>Sun, 09 Nov 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-11-09/</guid><description>&lt;p>Though fried dough dates back to at least the Roman empire, the
doughnut we know today (with a hole in the center) was invented by
Hanson Gregory in 1847. He was making doughnuts for a break-the-fast
celebration when he noticed some oil splatter on the Sacrament Program
that he had on the table. It had spattered in the shape of an “O”
surrounding and drawing attention to the sacrament hymn. That made
him think of putting a hole in the middle of the doughnut to prevent a
doughy center. His doughnuts quickly became popular at break-the-fast
celebrations, due in part to being inspired by Sacrament Programs. It
took a little while to break into the secular market, but the truth
and power of Sacrament Programs will always win in the end.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2025-11-02</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-11-02/</link><pubDate>Sun, 02 Nov 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-11-02/</guid><description>&lt;p>Sacrament Slang Origins #87:&lt;/p>
&lt;p>The slang phrase 6–7 comes from an infamous incident of an altercation
between Hezekiah Archibald Shumaker Jones III and Joseph Smith Jr. in
Nauvoo. Joseph had a Sacrament Program printed up with an announcement
for Hezekiah’s upcoming marriage on June 7, 1844. However, he printed
the date incorrectly as 7/6/1844. When Hezekiah saw Joseph in the
street he pointed out the mistake and said he was starting to wonder
whether Joseph was really a prophet. Joseph, known to be a bit
stubborn, refused to apologize to Hezekiah’s satisfaction. Hezekiah
started yelling “6/7! 6/7!” in reference to the correct date and
Joseph would reply “6 7” and do a little weighing motion with his
hands as if to say there wasn’t that much difference. This motion and
lack of concern so inflamed Hezekiah that he formed a group of men who
walked around yelling “6/7!” while Joseph’s supporters retaliated by
saying “6 7” in a certain singsong way with the accompanying motions.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2025-10-12</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-10-12/</link><pubDate>Sun, 12 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-10-12/</guid><description>&lt;p>Recent research has confirmed the old adage “A CV on SP will make you
VP”. A résumé (known as Curriculum Vita in Europe) that is printed on
an old Sacrament Program leads to 45% more interviews and 62% more job
offers. This is even more pronounced, rising to 58% and 67%
respectively, when applying for jobs in upper management. It also
leads to a 7.4% higher initial salary or wage. So make sure you save
your old Sacrament Programs for when you get laid off. Research is
ongoing about the effects of using Sacrament Programs for your weekly
status report to your boss.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Sacrament Program 2025-09-28</title><link>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-09-28/</link><pubDate>Sun, 28 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://gvol.gitlab.io/sacrament-programs/sacrament-program-2025-09-28/</guid><description>&lt;p>The concept of a spirit animal in popular culture can be traced to the
spirits of animals that accompany Sacrament Programs. While a person
carried a Sacrament Program in a place of danger, a spirit animal
would sometimes manifest and protect the bearer. This was a common
occurrence around the turn of the century (the turn from 1800s to
1900s that is). Due to modern mass manufacturing techniques and long
distance shipping after the War to End All Wars, today’s Sacrament
Programs often have spirit animals that are out of sync with their
location of use. For example, no one would expect a giraffe in Utah
or a Moose in Zimbabwe. Correspondingly, these spirit animals do not
manifest as strongly any more and often go completely unnoticed.&lt;/p></description></item></channel></rss>
