Start this Come Follow Me FHE lesson talking about Enos. Read Enos 1:4-27. Share with your family a time when your prayer was answered. Create the Enos Prayer Wheel included in the materials and let children use it to retell the story in their own words. Then discuss how we should pray to show respect to Heavenly Father.
Once you have learned about how we pray, teach about what we include in our prayers using the five finger prayer book. Let children draw pictures of items they would be thankful for, ask for, etc.
End the lesson with the pretzel story and a pretzel snack.
For a bonus activity this week you may consider making a prayer pillow or rock with your children to serve as a daily reminder to pray.
Read the Words of Mormon book. It is just one chapter but is important in bridging the two sets of plates. Read the section in the Come Follow Me Manual for Individuals and Families on page 51 that aligns with the Words of Mormon and complete the coloring page of Mormon.
Use the Holy Ghost teaching poster as you talk about how Mormon listened to the Holy Ghost. You may want to sing some songs about the Holy Ghost or make a list of how the spirit can speak to us.

Learning is a lifelong journey. While we tend to think of our years in school as the only time in life when we need to gain an education, we know through Doctrine and Covenants 88 that the Lord instructs His faithful to create places of learning in their own homes (D&C 88:119). How do we do that?
Sometimes, things just don’t work out the way we had planned: dinner gets burnt, the car won’t start, or you unexpectedly get laid off from your job. You’ve been promised blessings for keeping the commandments. It might be tempting to wonder where those blessings are when ill fortune strikes.
What is “godliness?” Doctrine and Covenants Section 84 uses the word to describe the way that God prepares us to return to live with Him one day. We do this by inviting our children to be baptized and prepare for the temple. Through participating in priesthood ordinances, we increase our access to the priesthood and experience “the power of godliness” as we come to see God’s presence in our lives every day (Doctrine and Covenants 84:20).
