Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 26 | June 24-30 | Alma 13-16

Having finished their missionary message to the people of Ammonihah, Alma and Amulek were thrown into prison. Though they were smitten and mocked for their faith, they did not fear. They knew that God was still with them. In time, they were freed from their bonds in a show of God’s power that left no room for doubt. 

Alma himself testified of the peace that awaited those who spent their lives in service to God, declaring that “they might enter into the rest of the Lord (Alma 13:16). We can also trust in the Lord to bring us comfort in this life and in the life to come as we strive to lead our families in righteousness. Regardless of the trials ahead of us, our faith in God will bring us inevitable peace, joy, and rest.

Toddler Bundle Lessons & Activities​

For kids ages 1-4 at home and in nursery or sunbeams. The toddler bundle Includes a full lesson plan with THREE activities that align with scripture written by an early childhood educator. These include a coloring page, another printable activity, and a movement activity that helps young children understand the scriptures. Here are a couple of highlights from this week’s lesson.

Break Free of the Fort

Go & Do Activity

Alma and Almulek were righteous men. They taught about God. People and leaders at the time did not like that, so they threw them in prison. In the scriptures, Alma 14:17-18, 26-28 we learn that they “broke free” with God’s help. Read these verses aloud to your family. God gave them the power to escape because of their great faith. To make this story come to life, build a fort with your family. It can be out of couch cushions, blankets draped over chairs or giant building blocks. Then, put a child inside the fort and let them break free like Alma and Amulek did. As they do they can shout out loud, “When I have faith in God, He will help me break free from my trials.” Build the fort again and repeat until each child in the family has had a turn.

The toddler bundle includes a lesson plan and three activities every week. Grab the toddler bundle in our subscription.

“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.
