The format of this Come Follow Me lesson is going to be different for the next 3 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.
One activity is glow in the dark rocks. Before the lesson find 16 small stones or rocks. Or you can purchase some here. Also get some glow in the dark paint. Discuss how the Brother of Jared solved the problem of not having light on the ship. Paint the rocks with glow in the dark paint. Turn off all the lights and see them glow. You may need to hold them under a light for a couple of minutes for them to see them glow better.
Have a discussion about revelation. Use the Revelation Balloon Pop Object lesson. Like revelation to blowing up a balloon. Revelation starts small, but with each breath to blow up the balloon, or each revelation we receive, we are able to see a bigger picture. Before the lesson place the slips of paper with different ways we can receive revelation into the ballon. After blowing up the balloon pop it and talk about what the paper says.

The Lord loved His people, the children of Israel. We read in Ruth that His love wasn’t just for the nation as a whole, but for each person individually who kept their covenants. Ruth is an example of a convert to the faith who trusted in the Lord to keep her and her mother-in-law safe during a famine. Ruth’s loyalty to God helped her see His blessings in her life and trust that even in an uncertain world, good things would come.
What does the perfect parent look like? Is it someone who never yells? Who is always present with their children? Maybe it’s someone who cooks food that the kids never complain about. The Book of Judges teaches us that even with specific rules and expectations, the children of Israel had a habit of returning to sin and idolatry time and time again. Even after they sinned or complained yet again, the Lord always invited them to start new and return to Him.
Most of the Israelites heading into the Promised Land had been born in the wilderness. Few remembered the treacherous journey across the bottom of the Red Sea, yet all would experience the miracle again as they crossed the Jordan River on dry ground. This time, however, it was not a crowd of fleeing former slaves who worshipped golden calves. It was the camp of Israel, a covenant-making people who had proven their faithfulness to the Lord.
