Why Club FHE?

 

   As members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, we all have many things in common. We live life to the fullest, squeezing value and worth out of every minute of our busy days and weeks that seem to be moving faster and faster all the time. Our lives are filled with all kinds of family responsibilities, lots of hard work, service in the Church and in our communities, and we still find the time to make it all fun. We expect the most out of everything we do and too often are masters at doing everything ourselves. We run, run, run and "Oh- it's Monday afternoon again; I need to put something together in a hurry for Family Home Evening tonight. Help!
   
   This is the environment into which Club FHE was conceived. Complete Family Home Evening kits that are delivered each month to help parents give a meaningful and gospel-centered lesson with little preparation.  Combine your current knowledge of the gospel with a quick review of a Club FHE weekly lesson and corresponding "Hands On" object lesson, and you have a spectacular Monday night for your family. Our lessons are designed to keep the attention of your children while having fun as a family learning the gospel.

   It is our sincere hope at Club FHE that we can help families fulfill the challenge in the following counsel:

"We call upon parents to devote their best efforts to the teaching and rearing of their children in gospel principles which will keep them close to the Church. The home is the basis of a righteous life, and no other instrumentality can take its place or fulfill its essential functions in carrying forward this God-given responsibility. We counsel parents and children to give highest priority to family prayer, family home evening, gospel study and instruction, and wholesome family activities."
