Every year for our primary program we like to give each primary child 2 invitations.  With the invitations we give the challenge that they use at least one of the invitations to invite a non-member.  This can be a friend, teacher, coach, neighbor, cousin- whatever! I think its a great missionary opportunity for the little ones, and we can all learn from their unabashed courage!

Our primary program is approaching so I sat down to make our invitations today and hopefully they will be useful for some of you out there as well.  There are 2 different versions you can choose from depending on how much you want to customize it yourself. … Read the rest

Tips to Adapt this Script for YOUR Primary:

• If you need fewer parts combine some of the shorter parts into one.
• If you need more parts, split up the longer parts into two.
