"My Forever Family"

This would be a perfect Sharing Time or Quarterly Activity

Preparation and Supplies Needed:

  1. "Primary Scripture Stickers" from www.debanae.net. For each Primary child and leader.
  2. Red Color Pencils. (enough for every child. I bought some and cut them in half. Keep them for next month)
  3. You might want to call the primary children and remind them to bring their scriptures.
  4. Have a small brownie for each child.
  5. Be prepared with the rest of the sharing time.
  6. You could make copies of the Sharing Time to send home with the children for Family Home Evening.

Introduction:

  • Families are so very important that Heavenly Father has told the Prophet to tell us to have what every week? That's right, Family Home Evening. Today we are going to have our own Family Home Evening and then you can do it with your families

    Discussion:

  • Sing: "Families Can Be Together Forever Through Heavenly Father's plan. (Children's Songbook, page 188)

  • Pass out a brownie for the children to eat while you are telling the story about MiSook.

  • Tell the story "Kimchi, Brownies and Family Home Evening" from "The Friend".

    Scripture Activity:

  • This year we are learning about how Families can be Together Forever. Each month we focus on a different scripture. Please turn to our scripture for this month "D&C 124:40" and read it with me. Pass out red scripture marking pencils and have the children highlight it.

  • Now I would like to give each of you an "angel moroni scripture sticker". Put this by that scripture and whenever you see it you will remember that it is a temple scripture. As we memorize it this month, every time you come across this scripture you will remember it.

  • **NOTE FOR PRIMARY LEADER: You may want to highlight all of the scriptures for the year in this sharing time. Since a lot of them are taken from The Family Proclamation, we have taken scriptures from throughout the CSMP Outline. They are all included with the instructions in your Scripture Sticker package.

    Conclusion:

  • The scriptures are so important to us. It is important that you mark the scriptures that mean something to you. So that when you are reading your scriptures or just looking through them, your important scriptures that you have marked will jump out at you from the page. I am excited to be able to learn more about how our families can be forever from our scriptures this year.

  • Share your testimony with the children.
