Primary Missionary Activity

I LOVE my church calling. I am the first counselor in the primary presidency which means I get to work with the kids and help teach them about the Savior. We planned a primary activity this weekend on Missionary work. The children 7 years and older all received official mission calls the Sunday prior to the activity. I really wish I would have recorded my boys opening their "mission calls" they were so excited. Mason was called to the Philippines and Noah to Paraguay. When the kids arrived Saturday morning we gave them their name tags and met in the Primary room aka MTC. We had our ward missionaries talk to the kids briefly about missionary work and they sang "Called to Serve". Then we dismissed them into their individual missions. We had a "mission president" assigned to each group where they learned about that mission/country and had snacks from that country. It was a really fun activity and I loved seeing all the excited looks on the children's faces. I hope it instilled in them excitement for when they serve their real missions.
