F.H.E. New Year Goals!

For Family Home Evening ( F.H.E.)  we talked about the new year and how it is common to make goals.  We started out with the Scripture: Mosiah 4:27 "And see that all these things are done in wisdom and order; for it is not requisite that a man should run faster than he has strength. And again, it is expedient that he should be diligent, that thereby he might win the prize; therefore, all things must be done in order."
We discussed what the scripture meant and then we started our list.
The kids had some great ideas but we decided to only work on one for this activity! So we picked be more reverent during Sacrament meeting.  We got out a bunch of paper and wrote out "steps" we need to take to stay reverent.  We have afternoon church now so we wanted the kids to understand that it's important to feel the spirit before we go to Church so that you can feel the spirit at Church and so others can feel the spirit too.  
 So we wrote out our "steps" and than placed each one on the steps.  We decided we would put our "steps" out every Sunday to remind us and hopefully before next year we will be able to do each step on our own.

You're such an inspiration, Lisa(& Brett,too). And FHE gets more fun the older the kids get, too, I'm sure!
