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.

Though the writings of Isaiah can be intimidating to study, we are encouraged to dive in and embrace this special part of the Old Testament. Isaiah is unique in that the entire book is written by him, as opposed to the historical texts we read earlier this year. Think about it: the word of the Lord straight from the mouth of an ancient prophet in your own home.
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a guidebook on how to be a better parent? On how to have less contention in the home? A word or two on having more patience and kindness? The book of Proverbs is full of wisdom given to David, Solomon, and others who sought the guidance of Heaven. Many verses, when read with prayer and real intent, can answer our prayers when we need heavenly guidance in raising our children, such as this one: “A soft answer turneth away wrath” (Proverbs 15:1).
As we continue through Psalms, we are taught that humility is required to recognize God’s personal affection for each of His children. Heavenly Father knows each of us better than we know ourselves—our thoughts, strengths, and struggles—and offers His scriptures as a light to guide us home through life’s darkness and challenges.
