BMS: A New Home in the Promised Land
MBM: The Promised Land–The Nephites
Theme: Temples are important.
Scripture: 1 Nephi 18:16
Resources:
(1) CS #118
(2) Discussion of the importance of temples. (from the three-year-old: “When I get dead, I want to do baptisms in the Temple, too.”)
(3) GAPK: #304
(4) the little blurb and pictures called “Places in Which We Worship” from the January 2003 Friend is nice
(5) the November 200 Friend has a game called “Journey to the Promised Land” which is an excellent review of all of the events in the Book of Mormon so far
One thing I forgot to mention: it would probably help keep the attention span of little children if you found all of the scripture verses used in the game and printed them out on one sheet of paper before you play.
And on a completely unrelated note, you haven’t really lived until you have tried Blue Bell’s Three Milks Cake with Coconut and Pineapple ice cream. The very thought that any area of the country where said product is not readily available could contend for celestial status boggles the mind.
The very fact that someone would consider putting such a concoction in her mouth boggles the mind!
First of all, I’M PREGNANT.
Secondly, aren’t you on your way to France?
Congratulations, Julie!! (And my apologies if this is old news; I had not heard.)
Julie, congratulations!
And, I’m on my way to France (assuming I can find my translator, who has disappeared in Guatamala with the translation of my paper–no kidding). But my plane doesn’t leave until Wednesday. Today and tomorrow are “try to get your life in order” days.
Julie…if you really dig Tres Leche Ice Cream, you need to go buy yourself a tres leche cake. A great place to buy it by the piece in Austin is Cuba Libre. You will thank me!
Ian–
We’ve been meaning to go there and now we have a real excuse. Thanks.
