Activity, Lesson & Family Home Evening Ideas + Lib Dub Video

Wasn’t Stake Conference wonderful? It was so joyful to watch Rebekah Day, a Laurel from Methuen - and one of Sister Krista Day’s incredible Daughters -speak with such poise and with the Spirit. And did you see how many of our Young Women were in the choir? We sure love all of them – and all of you.

Here are a few ideas to help as you and the class presidencies plan your weekly activities:

Give each person a puzzle piece to decorate... keeping the edges intact so it can be re-assembled. Use for a lesson on individual worth... how each individual piece is beautiful on its own. But what a masterpiece you get when you put them all together! (Big chunky puzzles work best.)

Focus little ones on OTHERS during the month of Christmas- over 50 acts of kindness. What a fantastic idea to help keep CHRIST in Christmas...thinking of others!

Christmas tree relay game: Each team was given a roll of green crepe paper and ornaments. They had to decorate one person from their team to look like a Christmas tree.

Pin the tag on the missionary. With the new announcement from President Monson, this would be fun to do with a young woman and a young man wall picture. Have each youth create their own tag in the language of one place they would love to serve the Lord. Then play the game. Afterwards you might also divide the youth up into twosomes or threesomes and have them take 15 minutes to study and then come up with a 5 minute lesson on one topic from Preach My Gospel (see side bar for link to that book.)

And last but not least: THE EXETER STAKE LIP DUB!

Huge thank you to the Exeter Ward Young Women Presidency (Sister Alison Hardisty, Sister Nicole Caverretta, Sister Amy Edwards, Sister Holly Lyles) and the Exeter Ward Young Men Presidency (Brother Harvey Gish, Brother Chris Caverretta and Brother Matt Adams) for coordinating this! Aren’t the youth so fun to watch? They had a blast.
