We have multiple Come Follow Me subscriptions and multiple activities in each subscription to help you find what works best for your family. Our goal is to help families come closer to Christ and we’ve worked really hard on providing more options to help achieve our goal.
Place a small treat inside a small paper bag. Then place that paper bag inside a slightly larger bag. Repeat this again 2 more times. Promise your child that you’re going to give them a treat. Let your child open the bags until they find the treat. Teach your child about Abraham and Sarah. Explain that God promised them they would have a child. They didn’t have a child for a really long time but they continued to keep their covenants. They finally had a son when they were almost 100 years old. Bear your testimony that God always keeps his promises and will bless us if we keep our covenants, even if it takes a long time. Then color the “Abraham and Sarah coloring page.”
Let your children “break the code.” Then discuss what you learn from Genesis 13:7-8
The Standard Activities includes the Simplified activity and more!
Read Genesis 15:1-6. Discuss how Sarah and Abraham’s posterity will be more than the stars. Gather supplies and have fun making popsicle stick stars. You will need popsicle sticks and glue. You can use markers, glitter, string, paint, sequins, and/or pompoms to decorate your star. Follow the instructions on the “Popsicle Stick Star Page.”
Ask your family what it means to be a peacemaker. Talk about what makes someone a peacemaker or a peace breaker as you complete the “Peacemaker, Peace Breaker” cut and paste activity page.
The extra premium materials will only be available in your account during the current month, February 1st-28th.

By the time the Israelites had their third king, the nation split into two groups: the 10 tribes in the north, forming the Kingdom of Israel, and the remaining two tribes in the south, forming the Kingdom of Judah. The Lord called a mighty prophet, Elijah, to remind His people of their true King: Jehovah (Jesus Christ). Elijah testified to the people that their idol worship was taking them farther away from God.
Going from tabernacle to temple was a big deal for the Israelites. So big, in fact, that even those building the temple had to be worthy of the task. David’s sin in his lust for Bathsheba disqualified him to build the Lord’s house, resulting in his son Solomon completing it. For building the temple with a pure heart, the Lord promised Solomon that so long as he kept the commandments, “I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people” (1 Kings 6:13).
The story of David versus Goliath teaches many important principles, with one being that if we try our best and have real faith in God, He will help us make the most of our efforts. Though an army was present and he was offered the king’s armor, David brought his sling and his belief that the Lord would prevail through him. It was enough: “the Lord saveth not with sword and spear” (1 Samuel 17:47) but with trust and hope.
