The Glory of God is Intelligence!

Virtue of the Week: Love of Learning

Article of Faith: 8TH "We believe the Bible to be the word of God, as far as it is translated correctly, we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God."

Scripture of the Week: "....seek ye diligently and teach one another words of wisdom; yea seek ye out of the best books words of widsom; seek learning even by study and also by faith." D&C 88:118

Quote#1: "We are in the school of mortality and keep learning and we do not expect to cease learning while we live on this earth; and when we pass through the veil, we expect still to continue to learn. We might ask, when shall we cease to learn? I will give you my opinion about it: NEVER, NEVER!!! ~Brigham Young

We spent this week talking to the kids about the importance of checking into THEIR education and realizing that the education that they receive needs to be not only for this life but also for eternity, and an education that helps them to fulfill the mission for which they were sent to this earth. We taught them that there are clues to what their education should be. They need to follow their hearts and pay attention to their talents and interests to help them on their path.

We also had a great time listening to each other's Ancient Greek style Myths and Fables and feasting at our Greek style banquet. The majority of the children decided that they are very grateful for cow milk, and didn't love the goat's milk, but most loved the olives and the goat's cheese!
