Sabbath Activities #5
More great worship ideas. I especially like the first one. I emphasize the importance of a good education to my kids, but I also want them to understand the concept of learning “by study and by faith.” Faith trumps all.
Faith in God:
Developing Talents requirement 6: “Read D&C 88:118. Discuss what it means to “seek learning, even by study and also by faith.” Improve your personal study habits by doing such things as learning how to choose and read good books or being prepared for school each day.”
Duty to God:
Deacon Quorum Activities requirement 2: “Explain to a priesthood leader the law of the fast and how fast offerings are used. Read Isaiah 58 and D&C 59.”
Personal Progress:
Choice and Accountability requirement 3: “Agency, or the ability to choose, is one of God’s greatest gifts to His children. Read about agency in Joshua 24:25, 2 Nephi 2, and Doctrine and Covenants 82:2–10. With a parent or Young Women leader, discuss the blessings and responsibilities of agency. Record in your journal your understanding of agency and the consequences of choices and actions.”
Cub Scouts:
Wolf cub scout requirement 10d: “Read a book or Boys’ Life magazine with your family. Take turns reading aloud.”
Boy Scouts:
Personal Management merit badge requirements 8a and 8b: “Demonstrate to your merit badge counselor your understanding of time management by doing the following: [8a] Write a “to do” list of tasks or activities, such as homework assignments, chores, and personal projects, that must be done in the coming week. List these in order of importance to you. [8b] Make a seven-day calendar or schedule. Put in your set activities, such as school classes, sports practices or games, jobs or chores, and/or Scout or church or club meetings, then plan when you will do all the tasks from your “to do” list between your set activities.”
