I found the background online then added the ribbon and words for this lovely Visiting Teaching Bookmark.
Please share with those you teach and love.
Happy Harvest season to you!
Visiting Teaching Lesson for September 2016
Our Heavenly Father
established families to help us teach correct principles in a loving
atmosphere.
President Thomas S.
Monson said: “Give your child a compliment and a hug; say, ‘I love you’
more; always express your thanks. Never let a problem to be solved become more
important than a person to be loved.”
Susan W. Tanner,
former Young Women general president, taught:
“Our Father in Heaven
exemplifies the pattern we should follow. He loves us, teaches us, is patient
with us, and entrusts us with our agency. … Sometimes discipline, which means
‘to teach,’ is confused with criticism. Children—as well as people of all
ages—improve behavior from love and encouragement more than from
fault-finding.”
“If we faithfully have
family prayer, scripture study, family home evening, priesthood blessings,
and Sabbath day observance, our children will … be prepared for an eternal home
in heaven, regardless of what befalls them in a difficult world.” said Elder Quentin L.
Cook.

“I was reading the
newspaper when one of my young grandsons snuggled up to me, as I read, I was
delighted to hear his sweet voice chattering on in the background. Imagine my
surprise when, a few moments later, he pushed himself between me and the paper.
Taking my face in his hands and pressing his nose up to mine, he asked,
‘Grandpa! Are you in there?
Being there means
understanding the hearts of our youth and connecting with them. Connecting with them means not just conversing
with them but doing things with them too. We must plan and take advantage
of teaching moments. The more I live, the more I recognize that the
teaching moments in my youth, especially those provided by my parents, have
shaped my life and made me who I am.” said Elder Robert D. Hales..
Consider This:
Why is the gospel best
taught by the language and example of love?
