This week includes a fun activity with Marshmallows. This activity is a great object lesson to teach about patience. We also created the coloring page to center around patience.
The other main focus for this week is the first vision. In your materials we have provided story sticks to teach about Joseph Smith. Use the fill in the blank page bible print for the scripture in James chapter 1 verse 5.
One of the bonus activities includes learning about kindness. Complete the kindness coloring page and create your kindness jar to collect the acts of kinds your family completes all week.

Joseph’s forgiveness of his brothers did not come after they had paid restitution or offered an apology. He forgave them the moment he realized they had changed from their jealous ways when they offered themselves in place of Benjamin for punishment. How overwhelming it must have been for Joseph to see such love amongst his brothers. His forgiveness came with no strings attached: “be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves” (Genesis 45:5).
In every moment of Joseph’s story, God was with him. From his brothers’ betrayal and serving Potiphar, to a friend of Pharaoh and the savior of his family, at no time was Joseph forgotten by God. Through the good and the bad, he trusted that God knew who he was and had faith that everything would be all right.
Abraham’s posterity was promised many blessings of eternal significance, but that didn’t mean everything would be perfect. His grandsons, Jacob and Esau, fought over who should inherit their father’s birthright. Relatives lied to and tricked each other. The prophet’s very own family was dysfunctional, yet that didn’t stop those who were righteous from striving to follow Jesus Christ.
