He “Has Sealed His Mission and His Works with His Own Blood”

Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 48 | November 24-30 | Doctrine and Covenants 135-136

Doctrine and Covenants Section 135 could be viewed as the conclusion of the entire Doctrine and Covenants scriptures, were it not for additional revelation given to the saints. This section witnesses the divinity of the Prophet Joseph’s calling. It declares Joseph’s work to be of God and that it will never fail. It also testifies that those who read the Doctrine and Covenants, as well as the Book of Mormon, “will be reminded that the Book of Mormon, and this book of Doctrine and Covenants of the church, cost the best blood of the nineteenth century to bring them forth” (D&C 135:6).

We can never forget the sacrifice that has been offered to the Lord for us to have the scriptures in our homes today. The word of God is in our hands thanks to Joseph Smith, his brother Hyrum, and many other early saints who lived and died trusting the Lord that He would make the most of their efforts. How well would our lives be different if we and our children lived with similar faith?

THIS WEEK’S COME FOLLOW ME HIGHLIGHTS​

Elementary Bundle Lessons & Activities​

We have some great activities and resources to help assist you in celebrating a Christ-centered Easter this year! We recommend picking the activities that work best for you and your family. We think just a few activities will allow you to celebrate Easter, but also allow you time to focus on our Savior and what He has done for us. Our hope is that you will find something meaningful for your family to help celebrate this special holiday!

Thankful Tree

Scripture Study

Read D&C 135:6 about Joseph Smith and all he did for the restoration of the gospel. Then, listen to and watch a talk by Elder Holland. Because of the restoration and the testimony of Joseph, we can have our own testimonies of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Work together to create a Testimony Thankful Tree as you write what things you are grateful for that help strengthen your testimony.

Thanksgiving Service

Hands-On Activity

Read D&C 136:11 and discuss how faithful service with a pure heart blesses your lives and the lives of others. Assign children in the family the task of making an apple pie dump cake for your Thanksgiving dessert. Allow them to work together and serve in the kitchen for the holiday. When the dessert is finished, ask how it made them feel to serve their family on this day.

Going Camping

Surprise Activity

After Joseph’s death, Brigham Young was counseled to have the saints move West to establish Zion. Pack bed rolls and create your own camp, making a blanket fort in the Westward Ho! activity. Read D&C 136:1-4 and discuss what the saints did to establish the camp of Winter Quarters. If you want, sleep in your fort just like the pioneers did!

Toddler Bundle Lessons & Activities​

For kids ages 1-4 at home and in nursery or sunbeams.

Remembering the Prophet

Go & Do Activity

Heavenly Father calls prophets to teach us what we need to know and what we need to do to return to live with Him. Joseph Smith was a prophet of God. Through him, Heavenly Father and Jesus restored the fullness of the gospel. We have many blessings in our lives because of Joseph Smith’s teachings and service. Read D&C 135:3. Explain that we can live as Joseph did by following the commandments of God and by helping others. With your child, play the Treat Walk game as you review many of the blessings we have because of the Prophet Joseph Smith. As you play the game, listen to “Praise to the Man” (Hymn 27). Share your testimony about how Joseph Smith has blessed your family.

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