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.
Hold your child’s hand and ask them to lead you to different rooms in the house. Tell your child that they are great at leading you along. Explain that Jesus leads us along too. When we let him lead us along we are safe and are able to make good choices. Read D&C 78:18. Explain that Jesus leads us because he loves us. Cut out the mama duck and baby duck activity. Attach the ducks with a string with the mama duck in the front. Let your child pull them around helping the mama duck lead her babies. The mama duck loves her babies and wants to keep them safe so she leads them around. Share ways that Jesus has led in your life.
Read Doctrine and Covenants 78:3-7. Discuss what the Bishop’s Storehouse is and it’s purpose. Then color the “Bishop’s Storehouse Coloring Page.”
The Standard Activities includes the Simplified activity and more!
Let the children use the “Break The Code” to learn about this week’s focus. After they have broken the code, discuss “Be of good cheer, I will lead thee along.” After your discussion play follow the leader. Let each child have a turn being the leader.
Read D&C 79 and 80 as a family. Or read the sections ahead of time and summarize them. Just like these men in these sections we are all called to serve. There are many callings in our ward. Tell your children what your calling in the ward is. Play the “Calling Guess Who” game to teach about the many callings in our wards.
The extra premium materials will only be available in your account during the current month, July 1st-31st.

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.
Have you ever been jealous of your neighbor? The Israelites sure were. They wanted a king to rule over them as other nations had, believing that life would be better and more secure. However, when Israel’s prophet prayed about having a king as a leader, the Lord responded that the people’s jealous desire was actually a rejection of Him as their true King: “they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them” (1 Samuel 8:7). Their need for what others’ possessed had decreased their faith in Him.
The Lord loved His people, the children of Israel. We read in Ruth that His love wasn’t just for the nation as a whole, but for each person individually who kept their covenants. Ruth is an example of a convert to the faith who trusted in the Lord to keep her and her mother-in-law safe during a famine. Ruth’s loyalty to God helped her see His blessings in her life and trust that even in an uncertain world, good things would come.
