The Iron Rod

Today we talked about the symbolism in Lehi's vision about the Tree of Life. We talked about the importance of holding on tight to the Iron Rod. I gave them each an "Iron Rod" - a 6" piece of a dowel that I painted silver. Their challenge: to hold the rod for 24 hours - take it to school with them - eat with it, sleep with it - don't put it down for 24 hours. Tomorrow we will share insights and experiences the had with their Iron Rod! I'm anxious to hear their experiences!
