Restoration - April 2013

The theme for April in primary is about the restoration of the gospel (find the 2013 Primary Outline HERE). There is no song recommended this month; instead we are to choose our own song from the Children's Songbook. Instead of doing a single song for our ward's primary program I am wanting to do a medley on this topic with the songs: The Golden Plates (verse 1), The Sacred GroveOn a Golden Springtime (3rd chorus), and The Priesthood Is Restored (possibly before the previous song). ANYONE WANT TO PUT A MEDLY TOGETHER FOR ME!? ;)

Because of General Conference we will only have three weeks of singing-time dedicated to the restoration topic. So the first two weeks I will have them the songs individually and then the last week we will hopefully be able to put it together in medley format. I'm pretty excited for this and hope it all works out.

Now to figure out visuals and all that ;) <-to be posted later

**Don't forget that if you are performing in sacrament meeting for Mother's Day (like we are) to start working on that as well! We are doing Mother, I Love You with bells that can be found HERE.
