Sketchbook: Memorial Day
Whenever I think of Memorial Day, I remember walking through the cemetery in Spanish Fork with my dad. We'd stop at headstone after headstone, and he'd tell the story about the person who was buried there. I was amazed at his knowledge and memory. To him, they weren't just markers and memorials — they were people with stories, who lived real lives. He made them come alive.
I wished that I had paid better attention. He's there amongst them now, and I hope that his story won't be forgotten.
Remember your ancestors this Memorial Day. After all, they worked together to bring forth you!

Sketchbook: Bo Peep
This seems more like something that would come from the Mormon Cartoonist. I couldn't find it anywhere in his collections. But just in case, I'm leaving it in the sketchbook.

A night at the movies — with a purpose
The missionaries in our area were faced with a couple of concerns. One, there's a great misconception about what the Book of Mormon is and what it teaches, and two, members have had a challenge knowing how to share their testimonies of the Book of Mormon.
The elders were inspired. They came up with an idea to have ward members take a verse or a passage from the Book of Mormon and create a short video about it. The video is something that would be easy to share on social media. Showing a compilation of all the completed videos would also be a great excuse for a ward social!
Here's one that I did, repurposing an old cartoon. See what you think, and feel free to share!

I'm gonna let it shine
Actually, I think that Salt Lake City International Airport has specially calibrated sensors to prevent this kind of thing from happening.
And don't forget — you can follow Sis. Kerry Jo on Instagram @siskerryjo. It's relatively painless!

Support your mother
It's not a Mother's Day cartoon (although I have many of those), but I think this shows the importance of loving and supporting one another through all of our trials. Just like a mom would do.
Happy Mother's Day to all the moms — and to anyone who had a mom. You're awesome!

You think YOU have it rough...
I mean, that cuts out about half of our material! At least we still have the missionaries!
Pictured here (in clockwise order) are representations of the styles of Arie Van De Graaff at the chalkboard, Val Chadwick Bagley, Ryan Stoker, me, and "Honest" Jon Clark. Before you say anything (like, "What about Brian Crane?") there are many more Mormon cartoonists, but this is the gang of five who appear most often in the New Era.

We forced some of these
Yeah, it's Star Wars Day! Once again we've taken liberties with the latest Star Wars movie and turned them into messages about being safe in work zones (because May is Work Zone Safety Awareness Month, don't you know).
That should do it with our public service messages for now. We'll return to our regularly scheduled program tomorrow! Be careful out there, and may the force be with you!
I may add one of the videos as well...

This never happened with home teaching!
With home teaching, it was pretty much straightforward: in the home once a month, Boom! You're done. With ministering, it may not be so clear cut. Of course, even with home teaching some people still got the wrong message.
