Guide to the Friend

Possible Ideas for Family Home Evening

1. Use the Bringing Primary Home lesson and activity to learn more about this month’s Primary theme (pages 40–41).

2. Ask family members to share their testimonies or experiences about missionary work. As a family you can play the missionary game on pages 34–35 and think of ways you can be missionaries now.

3. Read “Beeline to the Truth” (pages 44–45) and then do the repentance activity on page 46. Talk about why repentance is important.

4. Read together about President Monson’s example of service in “Going on an Errand for the Lord” (pages 2–3). As a family, think of someone in your neighborhood or ward you could help. Make plans to do something during the week.

5. As a family read “Fiction or Nonfiction?” (pages 4–5). Take turns sharing your feelings about the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon.
