“We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.”
After our opening song, prayer, and family council, we started Family Home Evening with a review of the first eight Articles of Faith. Mikey has picked up on most of them pretty well, although the 4th Article of Faith is his favorite. Josh is really good at the 1st Article of Faith, the 2nd Article of Faith (his favorite), and the 8th Article of Faith. Hannah loves having someone help her recite any one we’ll let her. 🙂
We next practiced the 9th Article of Faith a few times. I explained that to reveal something is the Lord telling us something. I attempted to simplify it a bit by telling them that the 9th Article of Faith is basically telling us that we believe the things that God has told prophets in the past, we believe the things the Lord tells the prophets today, and we believe that in the future, God will tell the prophets things, and we believe those things.
Mikey loves word searches, so we did [download#48#nohits] . After doing that, I then led a discussion on Lorenzo Snow. We watch a clip from the Windows of Heaven LDS video. I paused it several times to discuss the movie and how that relates to the 9th Article of Faith.

We ended with another song and prayer. Then we had some cookies as a treat.
