Week 19: Go Forward With Faith

By small and simple things are great things brought to pass.
Alma 37:6

Ideas from Lindsey: 
Give your family a small puzzle with one piece missing. Ask them to put it together. Explain that they need all the "pieces of the puzzle" (or gospel) to go forward with faith. You may even choose to write things on the back of the puzzle according to the lesson...prayer, scriptures, faith, obedience, etc.
Challenge all family members to read their scriptures and pray for one month straight. Select a reward for your family if everyone completes the goal.
Write a family mission statement. Include ways your family will go forward with faith.
Teach a lesson on journal writing and the importance of documenting faith promoting experiences. Consider creating a book where family members can write down miracles.
Have each family member share a faith promoting experience.
Make a "spiritual time capsule" for your family full of miracles and testimonies.
For the little ones...create a paper doll for the armor of God and label all the parts.
Cut out a paper flower (daisy or sunflower). Write "go forward with faith" on the center circle, then write all the things they need to do on the petals. Hand out petals or hide around the room. Tape up petals as you go. OR...create a train, balloon bouquet, whatever your family loves!
