3 Nephi 8:25 - 3 Nephi 8:35
25 And as they looked to behold, they cast their eyes towards heaven, and they saw the heavens open, and they saw angels descending out of heaven as it were, in the midst of fire; and they came down and encircled those little ones about;
26 And they were encircled about with fire; and the angels did minister unto them, and the multitude did see and hear, and bear record; and they know that their record is true, for they all of them did see and hear, every man for himself;
27 And they were in number about two thousand and five hundred souls; and they did consist of men, women and children.
28 And it came to pass that Jesus commanded his disciples that they should bring forth some bread and wine unto him.
29 And while they were gone for bread and wine, he commanded the multitude that they should sit themselves down upon the earth.
30 And when the disciples had come with bread and wine, he took of the bread, and break and blessed it; and he gave unto the disciples, and commanded that they should eat.
31 And when they had eaten, and were filled, he commanded that they should give unto the multitude.
32 And when the multitude had eaten and were filled, he said unto the disciples, Behold, there shall one be ordained among you, and to him will I give power that he shall break bread, and bless it, and give it unto the people of my church, unto all those who shall believe and be baptized in my name.
33 And this shall ye always observe to do, even as I have done, even as I have broken bread, and blessed it, and gave it unto you.
34 And this shall ye do in remembrance of my body, which I have shewn unto you.
35 And it shall be a testimony unto the Father, that ye do always remember me.
