We are learning about King Benjamin's speech (Mosiah 1-3 in the Book of Mormon) this week, and for our family night, we are talking about serving others (Mosiah 2:17). I found this idea from The Lean Green Bean and thought it would be such a cute idea to do right now, especially with everyone being quarantined. We miss our grandparents and cousins in Utah, so we are going to mail them a hug. Download for Free: Mail a Hug (with note!)
