Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 17 | April 22-28 | Mosiah 1-3

This week’s journey through the Book of Mormon takes us to Mosiah 1-3, where the timeless teachings of King Benjamin are shared. In these chapters, we witness King Benjamin’s profound wisdom as he imparts crucial lessons to his people and to our families. From his powerful address concerning service and faith, to the importance of focusing on the temple, King Benjamin’s words resonate with truth and enlightenment. 

As we delve into the depths of this prophet-king’s teachings, we uncover invaluable insights that inspire us to seek a deeper connection with our Heavenly Father and serve those around us with love and compassion. Each activity in this week’s lesson will help us learn how to serve our loved ones better each day. Check out some of the activities from this week’s Come Follow Me lesson below!

Crowns of a King

Surprise Activity

Temple Tents

Hands-On Activity

Read Mosiah 2:5-6 and talk about how the people pitched their tents around the temple. Make your own Listen to King Benjamin Tents.

“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).

“It Is Thy House, a Place of Thy Holiness”

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…”.

“The Order of the Son of God”

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is organized according to the Lord’s instructions, as detailed in this week’s reading in the Doctrine and Covenants. One of the ways we can apply the Lord’s guidance in these sections to our families is to establish councils within our homes. We should, with our children, “sit in council with them, and to teach them their duty, edifying one another” (D&C 107:85).
