**Challenge this week: To learn and sing this song.

We'll Bring the World His Truth

(Army of Helaman)

We have been born, as Nephi of old,

To goodly parents who love the Lord.

We have been taught and we understand,

That we must do as the Lord commands.

We are as the army of Helaman.

We have been taught in our youth.

And we will be the Lord's missionaries

To bring the world his truth.

We have been saved for these latter days

To build the kingdom in righteous ways.

We hear the words our prophet declares:

"Let each who's worthy go forth and share."

We are as the army of Helaman.

We have been taught in our youth.

And we will be the Lord's missionaries

To bring the world his truth.

We know his plan, and we will prepare,

Increase our knowledge through study and prayer.

Daily we'll learn until we are called

To take the gospel to all the world.

We are as the army of Helaman.

We have been taught in our youth.

And we will be the Lord's missionaries

To bring the world his truth.

Supporting Missionary Work

We have an Elder from our very own ward serving a full time mission in Canada. Being away from family and friends for 2 years can be lonely at times, so we are going to make cards and record our beautiful singing voices for Elder David Holdaway. Everyone can use a little pick me up from time to time, so lets show him that his fellow ward members are thinking of him and support him in the Lord's work!

In the meanwhile review the following Primary songs:

I WILL FOLLOW GOD'S PLAN

My life is a gift; my life has a plan.

My life has a purpose; in heav'n it began.

My choice was to come to this lovely home on earth

And seek for God's light to direct me from birth.

I will follow God's plan for me,

Holding fast to his word and his love.

I will work, and I will pray;

I will always walk in his way.

Then I will be happy on earth

And in my home above.

As daughters of God we are to follow Heavenly Father's plan for us. Through love, service, and sharing our talents with others, we serve the Lord. You girls have been called to share your talents and have been asked to sing in Sacrament Meeting.

Who Am I

Family History

We had a guest speaker, Sister Atchley, come talk to us about family history. She explained not only it's importance, but how fun it can be to find out where we come from!

You girls did a fabulous job coloring your family trees and filling out your ancestor's names. Be sure to share your tree with your families and discuss how performing temple work blesses families.

Here are a few questions to get you thinking...

All About ME

1. What is your full name? Why did your parents choose this name for you?

2. When and where were you born?

3. How did your family come to live here?

4. Do you have other family members near here? Who?

5. What is your house/apartment like? How many bedrooms does it have?

6. What is your favorite part of your home?

7. What is your earliest memory?

8. Describe the personalities of your family members.

9. What is your favorite thing to do for fun?

10. Do you have family chores? What are they? Which is your least favorite?

Smiles

If you chance to meet a frown,

Do not let it stay.

Quickly turn it upside down

And smile that frown away.

No one likes a frowning face.

Change it for a smile.

Make the world a better place

By smiling all the while.
