It’s time once again for the visiting teaching handout for my church.
This month the message is Divine Mission of Jesus Christ: Minister.
I really love this message this month, because so many great things happen when we minister to each other! We truly can be the answer to other people’s prayers and what a great feeling that is! I chose to focus on the quote from David L. Beck:
This weekend is the General Conference for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (the Mormons). I love conference weekend and look forward to it every six months! For those of you that want to know what conference is all about…you can check it out here.
I love conference weekend, because we can stay home and watch it on TV (in our jamies, if we choose to!) Sometimes we have all of our families together and sometimes my husband and I just watch it together. But there is always a great spirit in our home and I love the messages that are taught and the things that I can learn!
I have already downloaded and printed my conference packet from Sugardoodle and I have my conference notebook ready to go.. to take notes…doodle…and just enjoy the weekend!
It is always a must to have some great treats or food while watching conference! :)
So I decided that I would make some fun tags to go along with your conference goodies! These are fun to pass along to your VT sisters, or to make for your family, or friends! You can tie them onto individual serving size packages for everyone, or make one big package for the whole family!
My husband and I went on our annual trip to Arizona! We were gone about 10 days and we had a great time. We have been making this trip for about 7 or 8 years now! We go down for baseball Spring Training, (or at least that is what my husband goes for!) I go for the wonderfully warm weather and to just get away from it all!
Happy Thursday Everyone!
I do not have a thought for you today, but I do have a printable for you!
I had to make the invites for our Relief Society Birthday activity for church, so I decided that I would share it with you. You could use this for any party…all you have to do is add the information!
To print, right click over the image and go to “save image as” then save in a folder. Or you can right click over the image and go to “copy image”, then open your favorite program like Word or Presentations and right click again and go to “paste”. Or you can send this out to your favorite photo processing center, which is what I did! This is formatted to a 4 x 6 card.
This is the invitation that I made, I included it so you could see how I added the information to this card.
So does anyone have a party coming up that they need an invitation for?
I worked on this Relief Society activity all day yesterday, so that I will be ready for it next week!
I had to make some little fold-overs for the table centerpieces… but I got them all done so now I can move on to my next project, right? :)
I hope that you are all having a great Thursday!

This month the visiting teaching message for my church is about being a light to the world.
I love that every month the messages focus on a character trait of the Savior, and this month the trait is:
The Divine Mission of Jesus Christ: Light of the World.
Is it really February already? (well, almost) My oh my, how times flies when you are having fun! :)
Here is my handout for my church’s visiting teaching handout for February.
All of the lessons this year are focused on a trait of the Savior.
I love the trait for this month:
I decided to use this quote from President Monson: “Ours is the responsibility to care for the flock…May we each step up to serve” but the scriptures that are quoted this month are also excellent quotes and ideas!
| synonyms: | epitome, perfect example, paragon, ideal, exemplification, textbook example, embodiment, essence, quintessence |
__________________________________________________________________________________________________
I love this definition and especially the word quintessence! Click on that word to see what I mean.
So here are the printables for this month:
One of our granddaughter’s was baptized this last weekend. This was a special day for her. In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints the children are baptized when they are 8 years old.
I have made it a tradition to make a quilt for each of the grandkids for their baptism. It has always been a minky quilt with minky fabric on the front and the back! They are so warm and cuddly! I also have their name and the year and “choose the right” embroidered in one of the corners.
We had our annual Sinterklaas party this last weekend and the kids had a great time!
Sinterklass day is not until Dec. 5th, but we always have our party on the weekend when we can all be together. We started this tradition after my oldest son served a mission for our church, in the Netherlands. I love all of the rich traditions that go along with the arrival of Sinterklaas and the start of the Christmas season. That is why we celebrate it every year. It is just a fun way to kick off the holidays! I will apologize in advanced for all the family pictures in this post, but that is what this party is all about and then also this fun guy:
I hope that you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend. We had a great one even though there was a lot of excitement in our neighborhood! One of our neighbors had a fire in their home on Thanksgiving morning! The home received smoke damage and damage to half of the house, but it is not a total loss, thank goodness! We are hoping that they will be able to move back in a week or two! But it will probably take months to get their home all put back together! It really makes you stop and count your blessings and my number one blessing is always my family, as was our neighbor’s! Everyone was safe and that was the most important thing!
But now, here is the December visiting teaching handout for Relief Society for my church I love that it is all about the Savior for this month, because to me that is what Christmas is all about!
I chose to focus on this quote by Elder D. Todd Christofferson.
