Our Family Motto

We, the Peterson Family:

Promise to be honest in all we do and say,

Stand tall and righteous throughout each day.

Serve around the world and in our home,

Give thanks for blessings we’ve been shown.

We’ll work as a team with joy and love,

And honor our Heavenly Father above.

Items needed this week:
Paper
Markers or crayons
Post-its


Preparations to be made:
Think of people you know who are in need of service. Is there someone who needs some yard work done, or a meal, or maybe just a friendly visit or simple heartfelt note? This is the week to involve your children in kind, selfless, acts of service. Call your local Humane Society and make an appointment to visit the facility. Also, call your local nursing home and set up a time to make a visit to the elderly. Make sure you ask what they are in need of. Even a quick “drop off” of items they are in need of would be greatly appreciated.
