The main lesson for this week is going to be so much fun! You get to talk about superheros and play a superhero board game! First, start the lesson discussing what your family has learned from the assigned reading, 1 Nephi 11-15. Consider reading the opening paragraph in the manual on page 14. Discuss how God has a great work for us to do and in order to help with His Great work we need to be armed with righteousness. How can we do this? What does that look like in our daily lives? You can use the wiggle songs listed on the summary sheet to break up the discussion.
Then play the Superhero Board Game. As you play it will reinforce things we can be doing to have the power of God with us. Let each child wear a superhero badge as you play (have these prepared before hand).

There are some really great bonus activities this week.
Complete the love coloring page and then sit in a circle as a family. Let each member of the family say one thing they love about all the other members of your family.
This week in your materials is a scripture marking guide. See your summary sheet for a fun activity and discussion to do with your family before the scripture marking guide.
Read 1 Nephi 11:16-33 and talk about how God loved us so much that He sent his Son. Use the song chart provided to sing or learn the song “He Sent His Son.”

Abraham lived a life of violence and peace, of trauma and healing, and of promises and faith. Through every trial, Abraham trusted in the Lord and chose to follow Him even when his world was at its darkest. He was rewarded with a covenant that encompasses all of God’s children and will last into the eternities. This covenant and its blessings are extended to our families today.
The phrase, “found grace in the eyes of the Lord (Moses 8:27), has at least two meanings that can bless our families. One is that Noah lived in a way that allowed the Lord to strengthen him and his family during difficult circumstances. A second meaning is that Noah discovered the peace that comes from looking at life through God’s eyes. By looking at life with an eternal perspective, Noah “walked with God, as did also his three sons” (Moses 8:27) even in a world filled with wickedness.
In less than one generation, the world God created was filled with wickedness. One exception was Enoch, a prophet who taught his people how to live the gospel of Jesus Christ. As Enoch talked with God, he was amazed to see that the Divine Creator would cry at the fall of His children: “How is it thou canst weep?” (Moses 7:31). God responded, “They are the workmanship of mine own hands” (Moses 7:32). He was sad because each child of God is precious to Him. He grieves for each one of us when our choices take us away from Him.
