Got FHE?

When you think of the place that you have learned the most lessons in life, where would that be?

For me, it would be in this home.


I was born and raised in this home.  I took my first steps, rode my first bike, cried my first tears, laughed my first laugh all in this home surrounded in a loving family.  The church has given us a program to help us grow closer together and more united.  This is Family Home Evening (FHE).  It is were you take one night out of the week and spend it with family. What do you do?  ---->
 "Families were to take time to
 pray and sing together,
read the scriptures,
teach the gospel to one another,
 and participate in other activites
that would build family unity." 
Joseph F. Smith

The scriptures even emphasize how important it is that the parents are teaching their children how to follow God!
Dueteronomy 6:7
"And thou shalt teach them
 diligently unto thy children,
and shalt talk of them when
thou sittest in thine house,
and when thou walkest by the way,
and when thou liest down,
and when thou risest up."

It is the duty of parents to teach their children what is right and what is wrong. 

"The home is the most important
place for gospel learning. 
No other organization can
take the place of the family."

We need to make our homes a safe haven from the world and strenthen the families within.  I know that I am the person I am today because of the home I had the privelage to live in.
