Perfecting the Saints — One Lesson at a Time
GLOW IN THE DARK VOLLEYBALLMy husband (YM Presidency) actually put this activity together for a combined ym/yw activity. Its not an original idea, of course, but it was a big hit. (It was hard to get decent photos of this activity, so this picture is t…
I’m a bit behind on my posting – here is a QUICK review of some of the activities we’ve done lately:CAR MAINTENANCE (for Mia Maids & Laurels)Our 2nd Counselor’s husband came as our special guest and taught the girls how to change oil, change a tire…
In 2013 the Church placed very insightful headings to go in all new scriptures for Official Declaration # 1 concerning plural marriage, and Official Declaration #2 concerning priesthood ordinations to all worthy male members. Although some of your class members might already have scriptures with these new headings, most will not, so I wanted to provide them as glue-ins. The headings are also found in the scriptures at LDS.org and the Gospel Library app that many have on phones and t […]
The Spencer’s had their mission farewell last weekend! It was great to hear their testimonies and spend time with family. They’ve been finding ways to include their children and grandchildren in their mission preparations. One of the things I really loved was that they involved us in choosing a scripture for their mission plaque! They […]
One thing I love almost as much as the Book of Mormon itself are creative reading charts. There are SO MANY out there, and there’s just something about an empty chart that entices me to get reading. I literally have an entire Pinterest board devoted to reading charts.
My stake is challenging all of its members to read the Book of Mormon by July 1st, and I must say that I’ve fallen far behind. So I decided to get my creative energy flowing and come up with a reading chart, and I must say I’m pretty proud of the result.
I tried a bunch of different styles, but ultimately decided to make a target-style chart, with a ring for each book. As I was making it, I really liked the idea of a target, because not only is reading the Book of Mormon an important goal to aim for, it also helps us achieve our other goals and keeps us centered on Christ.
I also went back and updated the Book of Mormon goal-setting chart I made a year ago after realizing that it was actually pretty hard to read, and not very cohesive with most of the designs of this website.
You can download PDFs of both charts in either black and white or color.
And as a bonus I made a little handout saying “Don’t Miss the Mark—Read the Book of Mormon” to tie with the idea of aiming at a target, which can hopefully help motivate young women who are working on reading the Book of Mormon.

I just made this invitation for our Activity Days Mother Daughter activity coming up. I don’t suppose many others are doing exactly what we are for our activity so I didn’t make it downloadable or anything. If I am wrong, please let me know…
I’ve been getting really excited about this Summer Personal Progress Challenge. After almost completing it last year, I’ve seen ways it could be improved and built upon. One thing I’ve done is create a week-by-week study packet. Each week has a theme …
A few months ago I shared our Primary 13 Articles of Taste program. The idea is that each class earns items for their ice cream sundae as they memorize the 13 Articles of Faith. We celebrated their work together with an ice cream party. Each child got a ticket for each topping they earned. The […]
There were a lot of things I loved about this activity. The chance to shine and share are just two of them. Whenever you have a Talent Show, you run the risk of girls not wanting to participate because maybe they are too nervous or they feel like they don’t have a “talent” to display. Keep […]

This was an effective way to get my students searching and digging for answers this morning. It will work with many lessons. I posted a doctrine on the board and then asked them to tell me the REASON it is true backed up with a scripture (pre…
