The Articles of Faith

I've already talked about this a little bit, but I wanted to share the final product of our senior primary Articles of Faith incentive.  :)  I actually found this online and I really liked it, so I didn't have to do much myself.  Go here if you want a copy for your family (they also have a matching game and a poem to help remember the key words for each article!).

Articles of Faith Key Word Keys--aren't they pretty?  I was too lazy to cut out all the little notches, though, for 40 sets of keys... :)

Thanks to MY primary leaders from when I was a kid (and, to be honest, my siblings and me, who quizzed each other in the car all year long and many years since on this and other things), I earned all 13 keys already.  Paul's almost there, too.  :)  Since I got a small sewing machine for Christmas, I'm wondering if I should work on our Articles of Faith quilts this year or just wait 'til we have children who are in primary and can do it all together as a family.  I'm leaning toward the latter...but we're definitely including the Articles of Faith in our FHE program (in place of a scripture or spiritual thought before the lesson). 

Our 2-5 minute mini-lessons on the Articles of Faith are chugging along.  They're a little hectic at the moment as we get everything set up, but I think that will dissipate once we really get the ball rolling and I get all the materials made.  Otherwise, it's a ton of fun, and the closest I'm going to get to teaching at the moment!  :)  (Well, besides our primary class...)  They seemed surprisingly excited to earn their first key last Sunday, and most of the kids could do it (the first few aren't too bad, after all).  We'll see if they can keep up!
