Because the quote from the March 2009 Visiting Teaching Message says to "hold fast to [the family] proclamation" you can give the Fast Break Candy Bar with a copy of "The Family - A Proclamation to the World."
You can pick up a nice color printed original from the Church Distribution (if you live in Utah) for free, order it online for free or print the PDF file yourself.
Wrap a ribbon around it and attach this quote:
Elder M. Russell Ballard of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles: “I call upon members of the Church and on committed parents, grandparents, and extended family members everywhere to hold fast to [the family] proclamation, to make it a banner not unlike General Moroni’s ‘title of liberty,’ and to commit ourselves to live by its precepts.
Remember to highlight the word "fast" if you decide to give a Fast Break Candy Bar and "[the family] proclamation" if you decide to give a printed copy of The Family A Proclamation to the World.
Bonus: If you want to do even more you could also frame The Family A Proclamation to the World and gift it to your sister ready to display in her home.
WOW! What a super cute VT handout! I love it! I can't wait to give it to the three sisters I visit. Thanks! Looking forward to April...
ReplyDeleteWhoops... I ment to post that comment on the Shamrock idea... I think this chocolate bar idea is great too, but I live in Canada and they don't sell "Fast Break" candy bars. But another really good idea!
ReplyDeleteI just want to say thanks for the link to the PDF file for the Family Proclamation. I was looking for one for my VT lesson this month! I printed it out on cardstock paper and it looks store-bought! I am stoked! Thanks so much! Great blog btw... I believe I may come back later when I have time to look through your ideas. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteMy friend referred me to your sight and I have loved it. I have shared a card and the bookmark with some of my v.t. sisters and they have loved them. Thanks for sharing your talent with the rest of us.
ReplyDeleteThis is great! I LOVE that the title is PINK!! :) Thank you so much!
