  1. Reverence Tips

    in Family

    Posted

    Fascinating discussion on austism guys, but back to the topic, nudge nudge...

    About twice a year our bishopric has a sunday where all the talks are on reverence. That usually works for a few months, then the noise levels creep up bit by bit, until we have to have another one.

    Kids are difficult to keep reverent (sometimes i have trouble feeling reverent myself!) it is a skill, they have to learn and develop it, through example and reminding.

    Bribery is good too. :lol:

    I know in my ward it is loud because that is the example set by the adults. My personal belief (although I am quilty of breaking it) is that the chapel should be a "quiet" place to prepare to be with the spirit of the Lord. People should take their everyday chatter out to the hallway. Once one conversation starts everyone is competing with each other. Of course being on time for church helps with reverence too ;)

  2. New To The Board

    I have a few more minutes today to give some of my background. My username relates to my high school athlete number and the butterflies I have collected since grammar school. I joined the church 6 years ago with my husband. In my past life before becoming a mother of two, I worked as a journalist for 8 years and a seventh grade middle school reading teacher. I am from the New England area. I enjoy gardening, reading, and taking walks. I have a calling in the primary. In peeking around the boards, I find the content informative, funny, and relaxed. I look foward to sharing and learning from all of you.
