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.

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.

“Rebel Not Ye against the Lord, Neither Fear”

Moses did not have an easy time being the Israelite’s prophet. From constant squabbles amongst the people to outright apostasy against the Lord, there was plenty of drama he had to deal with. As a prophet, Moses knew what the Israelites could be if they stayed faithful. He told Joshua it would be less of a struggle if everyone could see what the Lord had shown him: “would God that all the Lord’s people were prophets, and that the Lord would put his spirit upon them!” (Numbers 11:29).
