Virtue of the Week: INTEGRITY

Article of Faith: 6TH "We believe in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church, namely Apostles, Prophets, Pastors, Teachers, Evangelists, and so forth."

Scripture of the Week: "......till I die, I will not remove my integrity from me." Job 27:5

Quote #1: "The strength of a nation derives from the integrity of the home." ~Confucius

Quote#2: "You do not wake up one morning a bad person. It happens by a thousand tiny surrenders of integrity and self-respect to self-interest." ~Robert Brault

Pre-Scholar Quote: "Are you not ashamed of heaping up the greatest amount of money and honor and reputation and caring so little about wisdom, and truth, and the greatest improvement of the soul?" ~Socrates (Ancient Greek Philosopher)

We spent this week discussing what integrity is and decided that it is, "doing the right thing, all of the time, no matter what the consequences are." We introduced the children to people from history, the scriptures and people that we know right now who are doing, or who have done that. Some have had unbelievably difficult consequences for doing what was right, but I think the children were touched by these people's courage and "integrity" and hopefully inspired to do the same in their lives. Ask them to tell you about our own Sister Rosa and when she and her husband had to make a very difficult decision, but had integrity! Also ask them to tell you about Elder Walker!
