The format of this Come Follow Me lesson is going to be different for the next 2 weeks. We have created a Tale of the Jaredite Sticker Book. This will help you and your family study a chapter in the book of Ether each night.
For the sticker book you will need to purchase sticker paper to print the stickers on. Another option is to cut and glue the stickers into the comic book.
Each night you will read or listen to the chapter as you create your sticker book page. There is also an additional activity to do that goes along with what you learn.
After reading Ether chapter 6 color the comfort coloring page.
Create your own barges using the Clay Barges recipe. After letting the barges cool paint and decorate them while discussing the steps of repentance and what you learned from Ether Chapter 7.
In Ether chapter 8 we learn that they are worried about secret combinations destroying their freedoms. See the lesson summary page for a QR code to a video about freedoms others are grateful for. After watching the video, use the skittle gratitude game and thankful show n’ tell bag.
See your lesson summary page and materials for more activities and QR codes to some great videos that go along with what we are learning about!

Zion’s Camp was less of an army marching to liberate Missouri and more of a multi-week training in how to be a true saint. Those who showed they trusted in the Lord by following the Prophet Joseph received a massive boost to their faith, giving them strength for the road ahead: “That they themselves may be prepared, and that my people may be taught more perfectly, and have experience” (Doctrine and Covenants 105:10).
Doctrine and Covenants 97 was given to the saints as both a blessing of comfort and instruction. With persecution growing around them, the saints needed to know the will of the Lord to guide them. Jesus Christ spoke peace to the saints through the Prophet Joseph, encouraging them to wait “patiently on the Lord” and to do what He would do, even if it meant further persecution (D&C 97:2).
It’s easy to think that, as parents, we’re not doing enough to give our children a good life. The world is always persuading us to look at what others are doing and tells us our kids are missing out on extravagant trips, the latest entertainment systems, and privileged extracurricular activities. Yet these experiences will fall short of the positive impact that regular family prayer, daily scripture study, and keeping covenants can have on our children.
