Family Home Evening Away From Home
In places with a high density of single adult members of the LDS Church, local wards or stakes organize Family Home Evening groups that meet together weekly for Family Home Evening. The purpose of these meetings is the same as that of real Family Home Evenings, but groups are composed of peers rather than actual family members. Family Home Evening groups are most common near colleges and universities, including but not limited to LDS universities, such as Brigham Young University.

Famous quotes containing the words family, home and/or evening:
“The family circle has widened. The worldpool of information fathered by the electric media—movies, Telstar, flight—far surpasses any possible influence mom and dad can now bring to bear. Character no longer is shaped by only two earnest, fumbling experts. Now all the world’s a sage.”
—Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
“Our home has been nothing but a play-room. I’ve been your doll-wife here, just as at home I was Papa’s doll-child. And the children have been my dolls in their turn. I liked it when you came and played with me, just as they liked it when I came and played with them. That’s what our marriage has been, Torvald.”
—Henrik Ibsen (1828–1906)
“He is outside of everything, and alien everywhere. He is an aesthetic solitary. His beautiful, light imagination is the wing that on the autumn evening just brushes the dusky window.”
—Henry James (1843–1916)
