FHE in a Jar

Print out the pages, cut out the strips, and place them in a jar or small box. When you're in need of a quick Family Home Evening lesson, pull one out, and voila!

I think FHE-in-a-jar would make a great visit-teaching or home teaching gift, or even an LDS Young Women or LDS Primary activity (have the children cut out the strips and decorate the jar or box).

Halloween Holy Ghost Poem

This handout would make a good Visiting Teaching Halloween handout. This is the poem on the card:

    Since this is the time for goblins and bats,
    Halloween spirits and ghosts and cats,
    Weird happenings and witches brew,
    These are the thing we wish for you:

    May the only ghost that comes to stay,
    Be the Holy Ghost to guide your way.

Temple Box

This temple box makes a great handout or visual aid for many different lessons.

Print the image on cardstock (If you use your printer's "best" ink setting, the moisture in the ink will cause the paper to soften where the ink is heaviest, making it EASY to fold straight lines.)

Fold the flaps, and fold along the walls, floor, and ceiling to form a box.
