12. LOVE from the Primary Presidency

Have each of your Primary Presidency come up to share a short (30 seconds or so) message on something they LOVE about working in Primary! Remind the presidency that this should be a very short message to keep the focus on singing!

I Feel My Savior's Love custom art flip chart in multiple sizes, portrait and landscape color and black and white printable PDF visuals and lyrics. Singing time helps for LDS Primary music leaders.

Then, have the Primary Presidency member share their favorite Primary song about love. Have the Primary sing the song together, then repeat with the next presidency member. This is a great way to add a little bit of Valentine’s Day to your Singing Time, without making it take over your whole 20 minutes! I will probably use up about 8-10 minutes.

You can prepare ahead of time with the songs the will be suggesting so your pianist has time to prepare and you can have a Flip Chart for the Primary Songs your children don’t know very well ready.
