Hymn – # 241 Count your Blessings
Opening Prayer
Activity
Explain very simply how interest works. Give each member of the family a set amount of m&m’s. Explain to them that they can eat them at any time, but that if they wait until the end of FHE their M&M’s will gain interest. At the end of FHE double the amount of M&M’s that each person has left! Explain how being patient and investing pays off. (You do not have to use M&M’s, any treat would work)
(You can adjust the wait period, such as they must wait until next week for a larger return)
Spiritual Lesson
Teach the Parable of the Talents. Mathew 25: 14-30. You can read the passage, explain it or share a video!
Discuss how Heavenly Father has given us all unique talents and skills that we are to use and develop. Brainstorm ways in which each family member can use these skills to reach your financial dreams
Closing Prayer
Find your 1098 and 1099 tax forms at the end of your December statement.
