Begin your Come Follow Me lesson with the emotion cards included in your materials and discuss each emotion and when each child may have felt that way. Then explain that through all of these emotions Christ is with us.
After reading Alma 7:7-16 complete the candle object lesson and discuss what you learn.
There are a lot of verses in Alma chapter 5 that talk about repentance. As you read these scriptures together younger children can complete the coloring page of Alma.
Use the backpack object lesson to review the steps of repentance and discuss how Christ can make our load lighter.
End the lesson with your testimony and then play the Seek the Shepherd board game.
For one of the bonus lessons this week you will need color changing markers. You can purchase them here: https://www.amazon.com/Crayola-58-8170-Color-Switchers/dp/B001QKLPQQ
Use the colored side of the marker to color in the heart and then use the white side to change the color as you talk about what it means to have a change of heart.

The Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ renewed the truth that Christ was born to save all mankind. Through His mortal ministry, His suffering in Gethsemane and on the cross, His ministry in the Spirit World, and His resurrection, He offers healing to all our sorrows and pains. What greater gift could we be given than that?
Every family comes with their own set of trials and blessings. Parents and children alike have both memorable times together, as well as times in which forgiveness is needed to move forward in love and harmony. As the Proclamation teaches, Jesus Christ is the key to strengthening bonds and repairing relationships that break: “Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ.” Ultimately, all we do as a family in righteousness prepares us to live with God, exalted, as a family in heaven.
Though we have reached the end of the Doctrine and Covenants, the work of the Restoration is still ongoing: “We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God” (Articles of Faith 1:9). Prophets still reveal the will of God. The Church is still growing to fill the Earth.
