January Learning and Living the Gospel

In Learning and Living the Gospel one requirement is for the boys to give a family home evening lesson Joseph Smith's First Vision. This can be found in Joseph Smith History 1:1-20 Then to have the family talk about how Heavenly Father answers our prayers. There are 5 Mondays in January and the boys could do this on one of those days. The bears will be preparing this family home evening lesson on January 3, 2011 from 3:30-4:30pm at the church. Another requirement is to sing the song "Choose the Right (hymn number 239) and than explain what agency is and what it means to be responsible for your choices. Then discuss how making good choices has helped you develop greater faith. This is also another great Family Home Evening. Another idea is in Serving Others. Idonna Murray fell at the end of last month and broke her hip. In serving others it says to read the parable of the good Samaritan (Luke 10:30-37). Then to plan and complete a service project that helps a family member or neighbor. Idonna could use help in so many ways at this time, as well as others in the ward. There are 3 ideas for this month, good luck and have fun!
