Tonight for FHE we did the lesson suggestion from the Sunday School lesson yesterday. It said to: read the account of Captain Moroni raising the title of liberty (Alma 46:12–20). Then work as a family to create your own title of liberty. Ask family members to list a few important principles that would remind and inspire them to take the name of Christ upon themselves. Then write those principles on a large piece of paper. Encourage family members to live according to the principles you have written on your family’s title of liberty.
I figured out how to work the timer on my camera! YEA! I get to be in a picture. lol
We had actually made a title of liberty a few years ago for our family.....so we dug that out of Peirce's toy box and talked about it.
The kids thought we should each make our own - so we each got a flag from some craft I prepared for a ward party a few years or so ago. My flag has our family reading together. We're reading the word of God, learning about the whisperings of the spirit, and preparing to go to the temple together.
Allen drew me (that'd be the chubby lady in his picture), Jill (the crazy looking child) and Peirce (the scrawny kid) for what was most important to him.
Jill wrote, "In memory of our religion, our goals, our love, and our unity." She also wrote Aaaaackroyds....because that's the cheer we do after family prayer and eternal family to remind us that we're stuck together forever.....I'm not sure how the Olympic rings fit in, except that she sure wants to go to the Olympics one day!
Peirce drew a bunch of aliens and a picture of me farting. (????) I guess we still have some work to do with that kid.
Sometimes FHE doesn't go quite as well as we hope it might. (sigh)
Afterwards we went to Dairy Queen for a treat. That is always a hit!
