sister friendly.


A little over a year ago I posted about Paul and I being in charge of "Sharing Time" for the children in our church. It was shortly after that, I was put in to the Primary Presidency, and have been charge of "Sharing Time" a lot more. Let me just say that Paul's idea from a year ago has been my ultimate stand by.

I have successfully pulled off being THE Sister Friendly in our Primary, and I am darn proud of it. =) The kids love it, I love it, and guess what? I have some serious knowledge of The Friend Magazine. Yes, I can tell you where the hidden CTR ring is found, and I can even tell you pretty much every story cover to cover.

What you need to be Sister or even Brother Friendly?

An apron with lots of pockets sewn on.
Knowledge of The Friend Magazine.
The pockets bulging with prizes for right answers.
That is it.
Easy, right?
The prizes in your pocket could be anything from stickers, candy, custom t-shirts, or even CTR rings.
What kind of prizes did your Sister Friendly hand out?
What is your "Sharing Time" stand by??

Having experiencing Sister Friendly Sell first hand, I can say that she is awesome :). The cutest ever! We're gonna have to make her come back... released, shmeleased.

What a cute idea! I will have to remember it in case I am ever in Primary.

oh I bet you are SO cute at it... but all I can say is I hope to never have another primary calling as long as I live... I think there is nothing more mean to do to a school teacher... I was called as the activity days / achievement days leader a few years ago and let me just tell you how quickly I ran back to a singles ward!! (thankfully my dad was called as bishop shortly after I got the calling, so it was very easy to ask to be released)... I love kids, but on the weekend I really need adult interaction and relief society. My current calling is librarian, which is so easy :)

My mom used to be Sister Friendly all the time. Wow, that brings back memories.

Camille said...

That is MY favorite time of sharing time as well!! :) I think they picked a good one with you :)

I too am in the Primary Presidency and I NEVER know what to do for sharing time, I found this blog called sofia's sharing time (it's on my sidebar if you want to go visit it) and she has lots of cute ideas. But I think I'm definately going to use Sister Friendly, I LOVE the apron, did you make it or where did you get it from?? I'm sure you totally rock at being in the Primary!!

OMGoodness!!! This is the BEST idea, Evonne! And next time I see you, I think I'd like to quiz you on your "The Friend" knowledge. LOL... I'd lose.

I was just called to be "Sister Friendly" in our ward and I must admit up to this point I had never heard of her! Is there any way you could/would give me a little more insight as to what my calling is? The primary president explained a little but just basically left it up to me and I'm kind of freaking out! :) I would appreciate any and all suggestions! Thank you! My email is barc.ranch77@gmail.com if that would be easier.
