Here is the first 2 weeks of General Conference talks with Photo/Quotes to hang up while you study

Last night we did the Pass and Write idea in our family and it was AMAZING!! Totally loved it. My kids spend 15 minutes immersed in the Conference talk and shared after what they learned. My 14 year old asked if we could do it again.  So it was a hit :) YEAH

I also loved that they "found" the quotes from the walls in the talk. My 9 year old came in after reading for a few minutes and said "Hey this is on the wall." That was exciting.  I guess I wasn't very clear where I got the photo/quote on the wall?? Also got a question "What does "succor" mean?

succor- from Google search

noun

    1. assistance and support in times of hardship and distress.
   
synonyms:    aid, help, a helping hand, assistance; comfort, ease, relief, support, TLC
    "they are providing succor in times of need"
       
verb

    1. give assistance or aid to.
    "prisoners of war were liberated and succored"
    synonyms:    help, aid, bring aid to, give/render assistance to, assist, lend a (helping) hand to;
    minister to, care for, comfort, bring relief to, support, take care of, look after, attend to
    "the prisoners were succored"


Been thinking about fasting and what I can do to be better at it.... It has always been a hard thing for me. For many years I was pregnant or nursing so wasn't able to fast for health reasons so I got out of the habit.

But I am ready to do better now.  Also thinking about what a "generous fast offering" is for our family. Still working and praying about the answer to that question.

First 2 talks-

“Is Not This the Fast That I Have Chosen?”

By President Henry B. Eyring

Here are some resources we used to learn about fast offerings with my children

Filling Our Homes with Light and Truth

By Cheryl A. Esplin

Follow the Prophets 40 weeks of talks

As you surely noticed there are only about 10 talks I was able to write down my thoughts and take notes on during conference weekend. There were many I heard but was doing other things and unable to write my ideas and inspiration down and there were some I just missed all together. It is such an outpouring of information that by Sunday I am a little exhausted and less able to hear. So last conference I made it a goal to do a conference talk every week as our families scripture study. It has been a great blessing and has really helped me remember what I learned and get constantly nourished by the good word of God through the 6 months. I am also able to slowly but surely get more out of each talk. So today I found a 40 day challenge to read a conference talk. This was too fast for my family we don't get through a whole talk in a night so I made it 2 talks a week. This will get us through all the talks by the next conference! Yeah

Here is the 40 day challenge Thanks to  Bryan Porter Facebook LDS General Conference

 

And here is the edited one we will be doing as a family

 

So Monday April 13th  we start with Fasting and Light and truth

Going to try this idea out with my family and see how it goes.
