"The Living Christ" presentation

We did it! It's been a lot of work over the past 12 weeks, but we managed to memorize "The Living Christ" by Christmas Eve. It was such a great experience to go to grandma and grandpa's house on Christmas Eve and recite "The Living Christ" for them! The kids did great!@


This project has turned out to be a great blessing to our family. We feel like our children have really internalized the messages in "The Living Christ" and can use what they have learned to bear testimony of Christ and describe who he is and what he means to them. The memorization part was easier than we thought it would be, too!

For Family Home Evening in 2011, we are going to let the kids take turns choosing a section from "The Living Christ" and giving a short lesson about it. We are also going to choose background scriptures to memorize together, too. For example, For "Under the direction of his Father, he was the creator of the Earth..." we will memorize a scripture about the creation.

We can't wait to get started!
