{Hope for the Home} Linky Party: Fruits of the Spirit Summer Series!

Last summer I posted a series every Monday entitled "Making the Fruit of the Spirit Come Alive in Your Home" as part of our {Hope for the Home} series and I thought it would be fun to do it again this summer!

Every Monday, I will post a lesson on one of the Fruits of the Spirit - love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. I will also give you an activity to help you put that particular fruit into action in your home that week, using the Fruit of the Spirit Tree designed by Cap Creations specifically for this series.

I will be back next week with more details, but it will be a great way for us to keep Christ the center focus of our homes this summer and will give us something fun and meaningful to do with our children each week while they are home from school!

For now, I simply want to give you this free customized chevron iPhone wallpaper designed by 517 Creations. You can display it on your phone this summer, to help you memorize the Fruits of the Spirit and keep your focus on them! Click here for the complete tutorial on how to download it to your phone.

Which Fruit of the Spirit do you and your family need the most help with? Which one do you do well?

Go here for more ways to make God apart of your everyday life and home, and be sure to link up your own ideas below!
