Roper5 Mission
Tonight for Family Home Evening we discussed creating a family mission.
First, we brainstormed our family roles.
Second, we combined these roles into five areas:
- Children
- Servants
- Explorers
- Friends
- Family
Third, we drafted a list of long-term goals for these roles:
- Return to our Heavenly Father
- Invite other to Christ
- Have fun making the world better
- Gladly welcome others into our lives
- Get to know our ancestors, build relationships now and preserve records of who we are
My suggestion final family mission:
As a family we will prepare for eternity through service, exploration, friendship and love.
Brainstorm list of roles:

Notes for final mission:
Return to Heavenly Father, invite others into our lives and to Christ, have fun, improve the world, remember ancestors, love family and preserve our lives. Live like and invite others to Christ, have fun making the world better, discover our family of the past, celebrate our present family and preserve for our future family. Look to Christ, discover past, celebrate present and protect for our future.
We finished tonight with Michele’s secret fluffy chocolate chip cookies (made with sour cream) and a game of Quinan’s Alphabet Bingo.
