By Marci Nielsen


People have different perception of family reunion. Sometime others ignore essential contribution it has to strengthening family ties. There are a number of reasons why many attend, but the main idea is to increase the cohesiveness that it instills in us. It is a component that brings the house together as one. The positive experience that comes out of meeting is the one that is sought for. It acts as a platform that informs the younger members the importance of unity and togetherness. A plan is important for LDS family reunions to be held.

Organization should always be a key feature to begin with before anything else. Failing to plan is planning to fail as they say. For it to come out successfully, then a chairman ought to be selected from the members. Their role should be clearly stated in terms of what to plan, where, when and how. This post once given will be retained for a long time.

Time is a major aspect that should never be forgotten. Whenever people fail to show up for the get together, main reason is normally the timing. Therefore while laying the plan a holiday period especially weekends is the best time to have the reunion. This will actually increase the number of people who will show up.
