Purpose

“The Family: A Proclamation to the World” (Ensign or Liahona, May 2017, 145) teaches important truths about who you are, the blessing of being part of a family, and many other things. What can you learn by studying the family proclamation?

Goal Description

Learn about your relationship to Heavenly Father and His plan for you by studying “The Family: A Proclamation to the World.”

Goal Ideas

  • Read, listen to, or memorize the family proclamation.

  • As you study the family proclamation, draw a picture, make a collage, or take pictures that represent what you are learning about yourself, your family, and Heavenly Father’s plan for you.

  • Write each sentence of the family proclamation, and record in your journal your feelings about what the family proclamation teaches you line by line.

  • Write down a list of questions the world has about the family—for example: Who were you before you were born? Who are you now? What is the purpose of the family? How can I help my family be happy? Look for the answers in the family proclamation and write down the answers you find.

  • Study the proclamation and look for teachings about the divine roles of men and women. Hint: these teachings are found in more than just two sentences. Choose one thing you want to work on to help you fulfill your divine roles.

  • Create your own goal.
