We had a fun evening on Thursday! We introduced our FHE Lending Library and played some group games that you can easily play as part of your Family Home Evenings (Mad Gab (LDS version), Don't Eat Pete, and a fun Guess the Name group game). Instructions for these games are included in the Lending Library.
The Family Home Evening Lending Library (whoa! that's a mouth full) will be available today in the Relief Society room. Please only sign out one packet at a time so everyone has a chance to use what's available. There will be a clip board in the box to write your name, date, and which packet you are taking. There are a variety of topics and most of them can be adapted to different ages. We hope to continue to add to our library and encourage you to submit any or all favorite FHE lessons you have.
One of the Relief Society purposes is to strengthen families and homes and we hope this Lending Library will aid you and your family in this purpose.
President Ezra Taft Benson stated the promised blessings for those who will hold a weekly home evening: 'If the Saints obey this counsel, we promise that great blessings will result. Love at home and obedience to parents will increase. Faith will be developed in the hearts of the youth of Israel, and they will gain power to combat the evil influences and temptations which beset them." (God, Family, Country, p. 228)
