Oh boy, it's been a long day! I spent the day with my oldest on a field trip. You ever have those days, when you are just plain busy and you wonder how you are going to be able to fit it all in? Well for those kind of days, it is great to SIMPLIFY. That is what we are doing for tonight's FHE, we are simplifying...
For tonight's Family Home Evening the topic in which I have chosen is:
Simply Choose a Mormon Message Video, Watch it, then Discuss it.
Preparation: I hope and pray that you can use these ideas as a guideline and adjust them to the needs of your own specific family. Our prophet President Monson says, "We cannot afford to neglect this heaven-inspired program. It can bring spiritual growth to each member of the family, helping him or her to withstand the temptations which are everywhere. The lessons learned in the home are those that last the longest." On Lds.org there are resources available in helping to make your Family Home Evenings successful, here is a link to that site on Family Home Evenings.
Invite a member of the family member say the prayer
Follow-up with last weeks FHE.
Family Home Evening Instruction:
Choose a Mormon Message Video, that fits your families needs. Here are some links to some of my families favorites:
- Building Families
- Bearing our Burdens with Hope
- Protect Our Nestlings
- The Refiner's Fire
- You Never Know
- Bullying- Stop It
- Wrong Roads
- A Shiny Bicycle
- A Mother's Hope
- Fleck's of Gold
- You Will Be Freed
- Continue in Patience
After the video, discuss it with your family. Ask them what message they got from the video. Ask them how they can apply it into their life.
Close with a Family Prayer.
