Look at the picture on page 81 of the Come Follow Me Manual for Individuals and Families. Have the kids talk about what they see in the picture. Explain that this week we are going to be learning about an angel coming to Alma the younger and calling him to repentance.
After you read about Alma the younger in the scriptures let each child make the Alma the Younger Conversion Story Wheel to help them summarize the story.
Explain that just like Alma was forgiven we can also be forgiven when we repent. Complete the steps of repentance activity and let each child make a repentance mobile.
After Alma the younger was forgiven he went on to be a missionary. Color the I Can Be a Missionary Now coloring page.
Use the Forgiveness Bridge Activity as a bonus lesson this week. complete the word scramble, print, and coloring page.
Other bonus activities this week include: scripture marking guides, Truths God Revealed to Alma activity, and watching the Book of Mormon video that goes along with the lesson this week.
See your summary page for more details on the lesson and bonus activities to do this week.

Abraham lived a life of violence and peace, of trauma and healing, and of promises and faith. Through every trial, Abraham trusted in the Lord and chose to follow Him even when his world was at its darkest. He was rewarded with a covenant that encompasses all of God’s children and will last into the eternities. This covenant and its blessings are extended to our families today.
The phrase, “found grace in the eyes of the Lord (Moses 8:27), has at least two meanings that can bless our families. One is that Noah lived in a way that allowed the Lord to strengthen him and his family during difficult circumstances. A second meaning is that Noah discovered the peace that comes from looking at life through God’s eyes. By looking at life with an eternal perspective, Noah “walked with God, as did also his three sons” (Moses 8:27) even in a world filled with wickedness.
In less than one generation, the world God created was filled with wickedness. One exception was Enoch, a prophet who taught his people how to live the gospel of Jesus Christ. As Enoch talked with God, he was amazed to see that the Divine Creator would cry at the fall of His children: “How is it thou canst weep?” (Moses 7:31). God responded, “They are the workmanship of mine own hands” (Moses 7:32). He was sad because each child of God is precious to Him. He grieves for each one of us when our choices take us away from Him.
