FAITH IN GOD BOOK!!
To get the religious knot, the boys need to plan a primary activity.

If the boys bring items to Sister Adams house Friday night at 6:00 p.m. (streamers, paper stars, etc...) and help the primary children decorate their bikes for the 24th parade we can pass this item off in their Faith in God books. Please let me know if your son helped with that. There will not be another Primary activity (and this is required) for awhile therefore, it is important for them to do this on Friday.
