5 WEEK COUNTDOWN to GENERAL CONFERENCE

HAVE FUN COUNTING DOWN 

TO 

GENERAL CONFERENCE:

it's all free

I plan to do this with my family and the sisters I minister to, and a close friend or two:)

i THOUGH IT WAS TIME FOR A LITTLE FUN

Simply stop by their homes each Sunday or Monday for the next 5 weeks 

and drop off a little something that goes with the FIRST VISION.  

Here are some ideas I had:

• 1st WEEK - GIVE THEM A BOOKMARK OR LARGER - of the COUNTDOWN - and then something FIRST VISION THEMED
• Make Heart Shaped SUGAR COOKIES with the QUOTE CARD:
  
• Eye Spy GAME:  Make these easy Golden Plates (one for each member of their family) they can play the game and have a little set of plates to keep)  these are made with FIMO clay - no kneading required - I simply cut the square in 4, then trimed each square to a rectangle and used the trimmed off edge as the binding for the book.  Now take a sharp knife, press pages indents on the side, squiggles on the top - and bake 20 min.!!!  DONE!! - FAST< EASY!!
• 
• With the Golden Plates you could leave this QUOTE CARD
  
• Copy a few First Vision ARTICLES or STORIES from February and March New Era's and Ensigns - they are pack full of good ones!!
• Give a 5x7 First Vision PICTURE (15 cents at Deseret book!)
  
• TREAT with a QUOTE:  Powerades, Spearimint Gum(find at dollar store), Sprite and York Mint candies
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
• Give a CANDLE- representing the Light that Joseph saw exactly over his head, and also the light we feel as we too ask of God and receive light and revelation
• Also...You can share your testimony, make cinnamon rolls (for the role Joseph Smith played in bringing about the sweet Retoration), listen to a FIRST VISION PODCAST together, copy Pres. the skies the limit!  Have fun:)

• I Love Sister Nelson's book - so I am copying them a CHAPTER 8: Take a Question to General Conference - and giving my sisters this to read  with the ASK OF GOD QUOTE card!

It's the Bicentennial Year of Joseph Smith's First Vision.

I am so grateful for the First Vision and all that was restored from that starting point!

From President Nelson's challenge for us to prepare for next conference our family wanted to do something fun - and this is what we came up with.
