Christmas, Good Tidings of Great Joy

Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids

Week 52 | December 16 - December 22

We look forward to the Christmas lesson all year and now it’s here!

Begin the lesson by reading the openings paragraphs on page 194 of the manual. Read or summarize the story of Christ’s birth from Matthew and Luke. Study the picture in the manual and imagine what it was like when Christ was born. 

As you read the Christmas story you can let each family member hang up a piece of the nativity scene on the wall. As you hang up each piece sing the Christmas song that is listed on it. You can laminate the pieces ahead of time to make them more durable.

Older children can do the Mystery Scripture Story to mark the Christmas story in their scriptures. 

Also included in your lesson bundle is a Christmas coloring page.

Display the Good Tiding of Great Joy print in your home this holiday season.

There are more ideas in the manual on page 196 to include in your studying this week. Prayerfully choose some that will bless your family. We encourage you to spend time with your loved ones and focus on the reason for the season.

“Comfort Ye My People”

There are stages in life that feel like they go on forever, especially in parenthood: sleepless nights helping kids stay in their own beds, potty training for weeks unending, and running to and from after-school activities. While the privilege of being a parent is a blessing, it can be exhausting just trying to keep up every day. Isaiah taught that when we feel like we have nothing left in us, we should rely on the Lord to give us strength (Isiah 40:29). After all, are we not caring for His children?

“A Marvellous Work and a Wonder”

One could look at the work being done by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints today and describe it as “marvelous” and a “wonder” (Isaiah 29:14). With temples across the world, missionaries on nearly every continent, and millions of suffering people relieved by Church aid, it truly is impressive. Yet Isaiah marveled not at the Church itself, but at the healing power of Jesus Christ in the hearts of so many of God’s children. It’s not the temples themselves that are a wonder, but the eternal covenants made inside. It’s not the number of missionaries serving that is a marvelous work, but the individual souls who are being taught by each sister and elder. It’s not the exact dollar amount spent on humanitarian efforts that made Isaiah’s vision great, but the difference made in each life through kindness and giving in the Savior’s name.

“God is My Salvation”

Though the writings of Isaiah can be intimidating to study, we are encouraged to dive in and embrace this special part of the Old Testament. Isaiah is unique in that the entire book is written by him, as opposed to the historical texts we read earlier this year. Think about it: the word of the Lord straight from the mouth of an ancient prophet in your own home.
