A Primary Activity

Posted on by

This past Saturday, we had a great primary activity. I feel so lucky to get to live in UT and around so many unique and special church sites. One of which is the church history museum downtown. I’ve blogged before about how my family went there on a Sunday night and really enjoyed their children’s exhibit. After that experience, I thought that our little small primary might enjoy doing something similar. First, we decided to take the train to our destination. This was very exciting for the children. Some of them had never ridden public transportation before. To do this, … Continue reading →

I Need My Sundays

Posted on by

You really don’t realize how important it is to attend church every Sunday until you have to miss one or two or even more than that. I recently had my third child, and despite my church responsibilities, I took a few weeks off from church before returning. The thing about missing church is that you don’t really realize the difference attending every week makes in your life until you go back. This is one reason why I feel that it really is easy to go inactive and stay that way. You don’t think church makes a difference in your life … Continue reading →

A Sunday Activity

Posted on by

As with many typical Sunday afternoons, my husband and I were looking for something to do to get the kids’ energy out. We hopped in the car and went down to temple square. It is a great place to visit for a Sunday activity with small children. Our kids love running around and looking at the pretty flowers and fountains, it’s free, and it is Sunday approved. Do you ever wonder what to do with small kids on Sunday afternoons? Sometimes we don’t have family to visit with, and we have sat around keeping the sabbath day holy all we … Continue reading →

Sunday Review: Hurt Feelings and Self-Confidence

I don’t know how your Sunday went, but mine was absolutely fabulous. I was touched to the quick by the talks in both Sacrament and Relief Society. Both left me feeling uplifted and with a desire to improve myself. If you have read my RS/EQ lesson preparation from last week, then you know that I have struggled with the issue of hurt feelings. I have prayerfully considered what steps I need to take to change, and have asked the Lord for a great deal of guidance. I don’t feel that I am a candidate for inactivity, but I know that … Continue reading →
