2016 Primary Binder Covers

*this post may contain affiliate links at no additional cost to you*

I really wasn’t planning on making these this year but it came time for me to get binders ready for my primary board and I couldn’t adapt anything out there to our needs.  And after spending a few hours trying I thought “forget this” and just made some from scratch.  There are a lot of great designs out there but they don’t want you to alter them or you need to purchase them.  As far as mine: have at it!  Edit them to your hearts desire!  Make them work for YOUR primary.… Read the rest

I’m back with segment 2 of our Polar Express Christmas party (invitations here, printable tickets here, polar express quote subway art here)- the party favors.  Santa will be handing these out to all the good little boys & girls when they sit on his knee.

Primary Board Meeting Invitation

Hello, Hello!  So it’s October.  And every time someone mentions something about the year “drawing to a close” or “Christmas is X number of days away” I feel my pulse quicken and I start to perspire.  (TMI??)  I’m trying my very best to enjoy this lovely time of year- I’m a native New Englander by-golly.  This is “our” time of year!  There is just so much to be done!

Among those things is our annual Primary Board In-Service.  *groan*  That’s right, “in-service” and “fun” really just don’t go together do they?  So we have come to call them “Ladies Night In” around here.  … Read the rest

Primary Sharing Time Assignment Cards: 2016

primary sharing time assignment cards

One of the highlights of our opening exercises each Sunday is “mail time”.  We have a little mailbox (that really could use a facelift at this point actually) and in it we put the assignments for the following Sunday (you know, opening prayer, scripture, talk etc).  This year we will also be putting in scripture hero clue cards.
