So he pulled out his "Who's Your Hero?" book by David Bowman.
He decided to learn about Captain Moroni. Mostly because he saw that there was a coloring activity with armor and he wanted to do it.
So Jerry prepared the lesson. He had a surprise for the boys though. They thought they just got to color a picture.
Nope.
They actually got to put armor on.
Backpack= breastplate of righteousness
Boots= feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace
Pizza pan= shield of faith
Bike helmet= helmet of salvation
Sword=word of God
Then we threw marshmallows at them to show how much harder it is to get hit by the "fiery darts of the adversary" when you have on the complete armor.
They LOVED it. I'm not sure they got the complete meaning of it, but hey, we tried.
Then we headed to DQ for some delicious blizzards.
It was a fun (and delicious) F.H.E.
