What some principles that can help family heads to have good family worship?
-
Do it every week. If it possible, set special time for family worship every week. Get another day in mind in case something you not expecting happen on your main family worship day.
-
Prepare. Talk with your wife. Sometime ask your children for suggestions. You not need to do plenty preparation, especially when your family can enjoy doing some of the same activities every week.
-
Do things that will benefit your family When the children be getting big, their needs and way of thinking can change. So, your family worship program must help each person in the family to really draw close to Jehovah.
-
Make it sweet and loving. Sometime when the weather good, yor can do it outside. If it necessary, yor can even take breaks. Even though you can talk about particular problem that affecting the family, don’t use family worship to criticize or discipline them.
-
Do different-different things. For example, yor can prepare for meeting, watch and discuss one video from jw.org, and practice for the field service. Even though having discussions that one main part of Family Worship, but it also good to leave some time there for each family member to do personal study.
