Creating Your Forever Family by Rachel A. Sullivan

About “Creating Your Forever Family”

Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities. It has been decades since the family proclamation was first presented to members of the Church by President Gordon B. Hinckley. But despite the passage of time, the counsel provided in the family proclamation is ever more vital in these tumultuous last days.

Creating Your Forever Family is an indispensable resource, providing practical application of the nine principles outlined in the family proclamation. Featuring counsel from Church leaders and stories of these principles in action, this book offers ways to incorporate these values in everyday life, from interview questions to help kids open up, to game night ideas, to fun family dinner conversation starters. Families will be strengthened as each member gets involved in the discussions and applications. Now is the time to fortify families and truly embrace the principles of this great proclamation.

My Review

This is a great guide to help strengthen Latter-day Saints families around the world. Although this work was inspired by the proclamation to the world regarding the family from the prophet of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, it is for everyone. If you are struggling with family home evening, family scripture study, prayer or all the many other things, we as parents, try to accomplish in our home, then this book is for you. There are practical suggestions to help you develop, fine-tune and unify your family. I love the ideas at the back of the book too that help with family tradition ideas, dinner conversation starters and family fun ideas. I am sure no matter what your family looks like, the tips and tricks that Rachel shares can bless your home too. I can’t wait to try some of her ideas.
