Seek Ye Earnestly The Best Gifts

Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids

Week 19 | May 3 - May 9

We have multiple Come Follow Me subscriptions and multiple activities in each subscription to help you find what works best for your family. Our goal is to help families come closer to Christ and we’ve worked really hard on providing more options to help achieve our goal.

Toddler Come Follow Me Activity

Give your child a small treat and ask them to share it with the rest of the family. Talk about how we feel when we share with others. Explain that Heavenly Father blesses us when we share. In D&C 48 we learn that the early saints were asked to share what they had to help others. They shared their land, food, and even their homes. Ask what items your child can share with others. Some ideas include their toys, clothes, and food. Color the “I Can Help Others By Sharing Coloring Page.” Consider gathering food items as a family and donating them to a local food bank.

Simplified Come Follow Me Activity

This week we challenge you to invite someone to primary, church, or a church activity. Visit your church building on Sunday (or any other day) and take a picture with the “All Are Welcome Here Print.” Post your picture on social media to let everyone know they are welcome! Tag us @comefollowmefhe and use the #comewithmetoprimary to be entered to win a Chick-Fil-A gift card. See Instagram this week for more information!

Standard Come Follow Me Activities

The Standard Activities includes the Simplified activity and more!

CREATE IT ACTIVITY:

Read D&C 48. Use the “Gift Sort” to teach your children about spiritual gifts. Cut out the images and place them in a bag. Let everyone have a turn picking a card and reading it. Sort them on the the sheet in the category of spiritual gift or physical gift. Discuss each gift as you go. To finish, hand out the “My Spiritual Gifts Page” and let each family member write or draw their spiritual gifts.

STUDY IT ACTIVITY:

Read Doctrine and Covenants 46:11-12. Use the Passage to Ponder to help everyone memorize these verses. Discuss how each of you can use your spiritual gifts to bless the lives of others.

SURPRISE ACTIVITY:

Use the “Keeping Our Records Mini Book” to help your children learn the importance of keeping a record. It could also be fun to look at past photo books, scrapbooks or baby books or read part of past journal entries that are significant to your family. At the end make a goal for how you and your family can keep a record.

“A House Unto My Name”

Building the city of Nauvoo was not the first time the Saints had to begin again, but it was the first time they could start new from the ground up. As the saints gathered from Missouri to build this new city, many were sick and still reeling from the harsh persecution they had suffered. The Prophet Joseph administered to the saints, healing them both physically and spiritually. Through His Prophet, the Lord promised the saints that, “If ye labor with all your might, I will consecrate that spot that it shall be made holy” (Doctrine and Covenants 124:44)

“I Will Order All Things for Your Good”

Have you ever had a powerful spiritual experience and felt the joy of God’s love, only to feel down again when normal life resumes? Or an hour where your children were seemingly perfect and kind to one another, but the rest of the day was awful? This might have been how the early saints felt by the end of the year following the dedication of the Kirtland Temple. Life itself didn’t get easier with the temple’s completion. Financial troubles and increased persecution made enduring to the end difficult for many saints. Yet those who persevered were blessed not only with strength but also with direction on how they could be a blessing to God’s children even amidst their own trials. The Lord’s comforting words to them are extended to us today as we also can help others feel loved during our own struggles: “Let thy heart be of good cheer before my face… for I, the Lord, have a great work for thee to do” (D&C 112:4,6).

“It Is Thy House, a Place of Thy Holiness”

March 27, 1836, was a special date both on earth and in heaven. For the first time since 70 AD, a temple of God was available for men and women to worship in. Many saints who were present for the dedication saw angels celebrating the return of temple blessings to the world. The Lord Jesus Christ shared His own joy of the temple’s completion in Doctrine and Covenants 110:6-7, when he said, “let the hearts of all my people rejoice, who have, with their might, built this house to my name. For behold, I have accepted this house…”.
