Read 2 Nephi 31:20-21. Discuss as a family what it means to feast and how we can apply that to feasting on the words of Christ. Then complete the feasting on the words of Christ plate provided in your materials.
In 2 Nephi 32:8-9 we learn more about prayer. Cut and laminate the prayer puzzles and play the game to complete each one.
Sing some songs to help teach about prayer. See your summary page for song suggestions.
After your discussion on prayer and places we can pray, practice and model praying.
One of the bonus ideas this week includes reading and discussing 2 Nephi 31:17-21. Make a straight and narrow path with painters tape on the carpet. Let each member of the family walk the path towards a picture of Christ. Discuss how we can stay on the path in our lives.
Read and discuss 2 Nephi 31:4-13. Complete the coloring page while you listen to and learn the song Baptism.
This week also includes a scripture marking guide. There are two versions. One is meant for younger children with assistance from a parent. The other one is meant for older children to complete individually. Both versions are meant to be a guide for marking and studying their scriptures.

Returning to Jerusalem after 70 years in captivity, the Israelites were eager to restore that which they had lost. The prophets Ezra and Nehemiah helped lead the people in rebuilding the wall around the city and in repairing the temple. But this was more than rebuilding their place of worship: it was a return to their covenants with God.
After many years of living separately, King Hezekiah of Judah invited the people of the Kingdom of Israel to come down to Jerusalem and worship the Lord during the Passover. Many who came to the temple did not remember all the cleansing ordinances and were not fully prepared to participate. Rather than scorn them, Hezekiah made sure that no one who attended Passover was left out: “The good Lord pardon every one that prepareth his heart to seek God” (2 Chronicles 30:18-19). Because of this, “there was great joy” during the Passover in Jerusalem as the people grew closer together in worship (2 Chronicles 30:26).
Josiah was a righteous king of Judah. He desired to bring the people back into their covenant relationship with the Lord, yet there was no way to remember the Law of Moses: the people had forgotten it. However, when ancient scripture texts were found in the temple, Josiah was able to remind his people of the law and blessings of their covenant. The people began to feel God’s presence again as worship of the Savior resumed “with all their heart and all their soul” (2 Kings 23:3).
