This weeks Come Follow Me FHE lesson is focused on the charity. Place the Heart Attack Hearts all around the room and let the kids guess what the lesson is about. If they say love explain that charity is a fancy word for love.
Read together Moroni 7:47 and talk about how charity means the pure love of Christ. Let everyone think of a story when Christ showed charity.
Introduce the Charity Tree. Come up with acts of service that your family can do during the month of December. Hang this up somewhere in your home and choose an act of charity each day. We bought these scratch off stickers to cover the ornaments after you write on them. Scratch off one each day and complete that act of charity.
Use the Scripture Study Guide to learn more about charity.
Think of someone that could use something to brighten their day. Color and decorate the Heart Attack Hearts. Write compliments or uplifting messages on the hearts and tape them to their door.
Use the Hope in Christ coloring page as a bonus activity this week. Have a discussion about how Christ helps us through hard times.
Read Moroni 7:20-48. Use the Good and Evil Sort activity and talk about how having faith helps us lay hold upon each of these good things.

Each day, we face trials and setbacks in our lives. From bad weather and traffic to messy homes and sick kids, difficulties seem like they won’t stop coming. We must choose to carry on and plead with our Heavenly Father for help and to see the good in our lives. He will always answer those prayers and allow us to see our progress in the path that leads back into His presence.
We often keep things of value in special places: important documents kept in a secured file or safe, dinner china in a display cabinet, or treats too good to share with kids up on the top shelf. These things are kept safe and out of easy reach for good reasons, but there are other things of value we need to make sure are always available to us. Our scriptures are one of these things.
We all make mistakes as parents. Sometimes our attention is wrongly distracted from a child’s needs, or perhaps we raised our voice in anger when we should have been calm. Do we seek forgiveness from both the Lord and our children when we do these things? Do we sincerely forgive our children when they err? As the Savior Jesus Christ plainly explains in Doctrine and Covenants 64, forgiveness is a crucial component of achieving peace in the home.
