General Conference Ideas

General Conference is fast approaching. I love all the ideas I am seeing to help us get ready to sit and listen to the Prophet and our other Church leaders for conference weekend. To start off, you can download a FAQ sheet for conference, which includes times, dates, and inspiring messages to help prepare for the big weekend.

Sugardoodle has a great conference packet for primary, teens and adults, and has also compiled some nice resources from other sites.

Zoey from Jolley Chaos has created a fun handout to share with those you visit teach.

She has this post card size, and some bookmarks that you could attach to some fuzzy socks, to help get into that “warm and fuzzy” frame of mind. Love it. Go here to check it out.

My girls all want a conference basket like I made for our young women last year.

It included the following:

Writing Packet & Pen: to take notes and write impressions during Conference
Twizzlers: practice your (Girl’s Camp) knots with a yummy treat while listening how “knot” to get lost in life.
Popcorn: Faith is like a kernel of corn – it can grow by paying the proper attention
Lip balm: the words of the Savior are a balm to the soul
Tissues: for when the Spirit touches your heart, and you may get a little teary
Hot Cocoa Mug: General Conference and cocoa warm you inside out
Pop-tarts: If you feel a little drowsy, “POP” up and have a good stretch
Candy Hearts: Know that God loves you and has a message for you to hear
Pipe Cleaners: Make a blossom ring while your faith blossoms from hearing the Lord’s servants

The following was a cute idea, also, that Sisters in Zion shared. She dropped off a box of Treasures cereal to her young women, with a note that read, “A little something to remind you to search for the sweet treasures your Heavenly Father wants you to discover during General Conference.  Seek after these things.”

Easy is my favorite kind of breakfast. I’m looking forward to the first weekend of October!
