Family Home Evening
is the best thing to be doing with your families. Family Home Evening is the
specific time set aside to spend time with your family learning about the
Gospel and ways to apply principles in everyday life. It is the time that
Parents can teach their children about the Gospel. Elder Bednar once said “that
our children may not remember what was taught but they will remember that they
always had Family Home Evening”. When growing up we always had Family Home
Evening and just like Elder Bednar said I don’t remember what was taught but my
parents always had it. Family Home Evening is part of the family foundation.
Top 10 Favorite quotes about Family Home Evening
1."We are to teach our children in a well-organized,
regular family home evening. No other activities should involve our family
members on Monday night. This designated time is to be with our families."
L. Tom Perry https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2003/04/the-importance-of-the-family?lang=eng&query=Family+Home+Evening,
2."Hold family home evening every week. As parents, we
are sometimes too intimidated to teach or testify to our children. I have been
guilty of that in my own life. Our children need to have us share spiritual
feelings with them and to teach and bear testimony to them." Robert D.
Hales https://www.lds.org/general-conference/1999/04/strengthening-families-our-sacred-duty?lang=eng&query=Family+Home+Evening,
3."I begin with family home evening. We cannot afford
to neglect this heaven-inspired program. It can bring spiritual growth to each
member of the family, helping him or her to withstand the temptations which are
everywhere. The lessons learned in the home are those that last the
longest." Thomas S. Monson https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2005/04/constant-truths-for-changing-times?lang=eng&media=video,
4. "Each family prayer, each episode of family scripture
study, and each family home evening is a brushstroke on the canvas of our
souls. No one event may appear to be very impressive or memorable. But just as
the yellow and gold and brown strokes of paint complement each other and
produce an impressive masterpiece, so our consistency in doing seemingly small
things can lead to significant spiritual results." David A. Bednar https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2009/10/more-diligent-and-concerned-at-home?lang=eng&query=Family+Home+Evening
