Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 40 | September 29-October 5 | Doctrine and Covenants 109-110

March 27, 1836, was a special date both on earth and in heaven. For the first time since 70 AD, a temple of God was available for men and women to worship in. Many saints who were present for the dedication saw angels celebrating the return of temple blessings to the world. The Lord Jesus Christ shared His own joy of the temple’s completion in Doctrine and Covenants 110:6-7, when he said, “let the hearts of all my people rejoice, who have, with their might, built this house to my name. For behold, I have accepted this house…”.

Temple blessings are key to helping our families grow stronger in Christ. We can experience these blessings in our own temple service. Even if you don’t have a temple near your home, you can still help your children feel the Lord’s presence in their lives by preparing them to be worthy of temple attendance. Doing so can bless your family for all eternity.

The Lord loves to see us being creative and using our talents!

Salutations!

Surprise Activity

A salutation is a way of greeting or acknowledging someone or something. We read in D&C 109:9 that we should give daily salutations to the Lord. For the entire week, strive to salute the Lord in your thoughts, words and actions. Use the salutation bracelets and chart as a reminder. Keep a list, and at the end of the week, share how this challenge made you feel with the Lord.

“A House Unto My Name”

Building the city of Nauvoo was not the first time the Saints had to begin again, but it was the first time they could start new from the ground up. As the saints gathered from Missouri to build this new city, many were sick and still reeling from the harsh persecution they had suffered. The Prophet Joseph administered to the saints, healing them both physically and spiritually. Through His Prophet, the Lord promised the saints that, “If ye labor with all your might, I will consecrate that spot that it shall be made holy” (Doctrine and Covenants 124:44)

“I Will Order All Things for Your Good”

Have you ever had a powerful spiritual experience and felt the joy of God’s love, only to feel down again when normal life resumes? Or an hour where your children were seemingly perfect and kind to one another, but the rest of the day was awful? This might have been how the early saints felt by the end of the year following the dedication of the Kirtland Temple. Life itself didn’t get easier with the temple’s completion. Financial troubles and increased persecution made enduring to the end difficult for many saints. Yet those who persevered were blessed not only with strength but also with direction on how they could be a blessing to God’s children even amidst their own trials. The Lord’s comforting words to them are extended to us today as we also can help others feel loved during our own struggles: “Let thy heart be of good cheer before my face… for I, the Lord, have a great work for thee to do” (D&C 112:4,6).
