Read or summarize Alma chapter 8. Let each child use the Angel Stick Puppets to pretend to be the angel as you read.
Reveal the heart crowns that you made before the lesson and explain that we can all be missionaries now!
One of the many ways we can be a missionary now is by being a good friend. Use the Friendship Flowers and Vase and discuss the quality on each flower.
After reading Alma 11 and 12, use the God’s Plan is a Plan of Redemption Board Sort to teach one of the many important things Alma and Amulek taught the people.
For bonus activities we suggest writing to a missionary (family, friend, ward member) and tell them what you are doing to be a missionary. If you served a mission share some of your experiences and consider making one of your favorite foods from your mission to share with your family.
Use the Body and Glove object lesson to teach about the resurrection and complete the coloring page.
The Book of Mormon videos are a good resource to use to help make the scriptures more alive.

Joseph’s forgiveness of his brothers did not come after they had paid restitution or offered an apology. He forgave them the moment he realized they had changed from their jealous ways when they offered themselves in place of Benjamin for punishment. How overwhelming it must have been for Joseph to see such love amongst his brothers. His forgiveness came with no strings attached: “be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves” (Genesis 45:5).
In every moment of Joseph’s story, God was with him. From his brothers’ betrayal and serving Potiphar, to a friend of Pharaoh and the savior of his family, at no time was Joseph forgotten by God. Through the good and the bad, he trusted that God knew who he was and had faith that everything would be all right.
Abraham’s posterity was promised many blessings of eternal significance, but that didn’t mean everything would be perfect. His grandsons, Jacob and Esau, fought over who should inherit their father’s birthright. Relatives lied to and tricked each other. The prophet’s very own family was dysfunctional, yet that didn’t stop those who were righteous from striving to follow Jesus Christ.
