Articles of Faith


In Primary the kids are asked to memorize the Articles of Faith. About a month ago I decided Max and Jesse should be old enough to start doing this. So each night before we read Scriptures, we practice. Max and Jesse already had the first 2 done, we just needed to do it together with them to help the process. Since we took on this challenge they have passed off 8! Almost one a week. On Sunday, after Primary is over, they recite the memorized Article of Faith to the "Article of Faith Specialist", they get a star by their name on a chart, and a candy. So far Max and Jesse are memorizing them at the same pace, thankfully. The competition is fierce! They cry if one gets it and they don't. They want to make sure they get that coveted candy on Sunday too! In the end, when they memorize all 13, they get a huge, homemade, chocolate chip cookie that they were given strict instructions by those in Primary that they were to share with no one!
