Here's what you do:

1. Email Nancy if you would like to be a contributor.

2. Share a Family Home Evening lesson idea. It can be about any gospel principle or topic.

3. It is not necessary, but you can also include a song, scripture, activity, and treat that go along with the lesson.

4. Add a label to your post including the "age range" your lesson applies to and the "gospel principle" you are teaching.

5. Email Nancy if you have any questions, comments, or ideas for this blog.

How To Gain and Share Your Testimony

Andrew saw one of his friends go up and bear her testimony in Sacrament meeting yesterday and asked if he could have a turn....

Review "Testimony" in the True to the Faith reference book: http://www.lds.org/ldsorg/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=e1fa5f74db46c010VgnVCM1000004d82620aRCRD&locale=0&sourceId=0cbd991a83d20110VgnVCM100000176f620a____&hideNav=1&contentLocale=0

Andrew is 3, so we're going to keep things simple:

  • Show the picture of Joseph Smith's First Vision: http://www.lds.org/hf/art/print/picture/0,16989,4218-1-4-115,00.html
  • Let him identify each person in the picture.
  • Ask simple questions such as: Does Jesus love you? Does Heavenly Father love you? Are you a child of God?
  • Share our testimony with him.
  • Let him practice sharing his testimony with the family.

Any ideas would be very helpful. Thanks!
