This Come Follow Me lesson has a different format then the others. There will be a short lesson and activity each day. There are eight activities so be sure to start on Sunday or double up one of the days to get through all of them.
Throughout the week you will be following the timeline for the last week of Christ’s life. Complete the activity for each day and then hang the image in a timeline in your home. You can use string and clothespins or masking tape.
On Wednesday you get to learn about the 10 Virgins. You could consider buying an oil lamp and teaching around it’s light. Use the paper oil lamps to discuss how we can be prepared to meet the Lord. Use the wordstrips to help teach about the symbolism of the parable and read the quote by President Kimball.
On Friday the topic is the Trial, Crucifixion, and Burial. We love using our felt set from j.m.porium to help teach in a simple way.
On Sunday discuss the Resurrection. Read the scriptures listed in the timeline and sing songs about the Resurrection. Use the Symbols of Christ’s Resurrection Egg Set activity to review what you have learned all week.
This Come Follow Me FHE lesson covers two weeks because of General Conference. We have provided multiple bonus activities that are meaningful and fun.

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).
