Fireside/Performance Guidelines

“I have a vision of homes alerted, of classes alive, and of pulpits aflame with the spirit of Book of Mormon messages… I have a vision of artists putting into film, drama, literature, music, and paintings great themes and great characters from the Book of Mormon. I have a vision of thousands of missionaries going into the mission field with hundreds of passages memorized from the Book of Mormon so that they might feed the needs of a spiritually famished world. I have a vision of the whole Church getting nearer to God by abiding by the precepts of the Book of Mormon. Indeed, I have a vision of flooding the earth with the Book of Mormon.”

—President Ezra Taft Benson – October 1988 General Conference

In an effort to bring President Benson’s vision to reality, we are offering multiple performance/fireside options to individuals, wards, stakes, and missions free of charge and allowing the local leaders or artists to determine which option fits their situation the best.

1. Full-length, complete video (1 hour 5 minutes) that can be shown for a fireside at the local leader’s discretion.

2. Performance with background visual presentation. A PowerPoint would be utilized behind the artists while singing and between songs that would include powerful visuals of Christ, Book of Mormon characters, and scriptures.

There are two options with this package.

        • A Full minus track WITH Narration included (by David Osmond and other artists):  Local performers would sing to the minus tracks, but then the Narration would be included on all the tracks.
        • B Full minus track without narration:  Local performers would both sing and speak the narration both in and between the songs

 

3. Full Live Performance. With this option, local units would buy the full music book (at cost from Wayneburton.com) for their performers as well as download the orchestration from the website. Any additional instrumentation, other than piano and strings, would have to be created on your own with local talent.

Depending on the option you choose, there is a downloadable file(s) with 4k video, PowerPoint, and all the pertinent music you need. You will need to fill out a short form so we can see who is utilizing this product. There is a place to donate funds for future projects, but really all we ask is that you share this with the world! Let’s flood the earth with the beauty and power of The Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ.
