Since Veteran’s Day is coming up, I thought having a patriotic Family Home Evening in honor of the occasion would be a good idea. Here’s a site that lets you send a postcard to a soldier for free!

For FHE this week, here's my plan: For the opening song, we'll probably do "Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam." Then we'll have a prayer. I'm planning to take the lesson from this Friend article where they have flannel board figures you can print and cut out of Jesus on the cross and in Gethsemane, [...]

While I was looking for ideas for ways to prepare for General Conference, I discovered Family Home Evening (FHE) resources. Church leaders have instructed members to set aside Monday night as "family home evening."
