Family Home Evening Ideas

“What’s It Like to Be a Brand-New Convert?” page 50: Consider having a discussion with your family about the conversion stories shared by members in this article. You could also read the list of 10 challenges that converts face (included in the article). As a family, identify the new members in your ward or branch or members who are starting to return to Church activity. Then work together to create a plan to befriend those members and support them as they try to find the strength to adapt socially and culturally and to grow spiritually.

“We Remember and Worship Our Savior, Jesus Christ,” page 68, and “The First Christmas,” page 74: Celebrate the Savior’s birth with one of the many Christmas-themed activity ideas in this issue. For example, you could cut out the boxes on page 69 and decide as a family how you’ll show your love for the Savior during this Christmas season and throughout the whole year. You might also consider using the script on page 74 as a guide to help your family act out the scene of Jesus’s birth. Both of these activities might help your children learn how to focus their thoughts on the Savior at Christmastime.
