Our main focus for this lesson is to be rooted in Christ. Read and study the books of Philippians and Colossians to prepare for this week. Hang up the tree and let everyone talk about what keeps them rooted in Christ.
There’s even a little personal tree included in the materials for a great handout so everyone can have their own.
We never forget to include a cute coloring page! This week it’s an illustrated version of the 13th Article of Faith. They can work on memorizing it while they color it.
The reading this week is about Paul writing letters of joy and rejoicing even though he was in prison. This is a good lesson to learn and recognize how we can find happiness and joy even through our trials. As part of the lesson you can set up a table ahead of time of things that make you happy. Talk about each one and why it brings you happiness. Make it interactive by turning it into a memory game. Cover the items with a blanket, remove an item, uncover the items again and see if anyone can guess which item was removed. Hand out the Happy Display pages and let everyone draw things that make them happy.
One of our favorite parts of the lesson bundle this week was The Don’t Eat Pete game. (You can also use it as your FHE treat! Double win!)

It’s easy to wish the Lord would show us everything we need to do to be happy and successful. However, that’s not His way. Instead, we are to act under His guidance and do the things we feel would bring to pass righteousness. As He tells the saints in Doctrine and Covenants 62, do that “as seemeth you good, it mattereth not unto me; only be faithful.”
We all want to arrive at our own “promised land” or “Zion” sooner rather than later. However, we cannot forget that the process of getting there is just as important as the destination itself. As we follow Jesus Christ and keep His commandments, we are changed to become more like the Savior. The trials that accompany this period of growth are essential the eternal reward of being with our families forever, for “after much tribulation come the blessings (DC 58:4).”
In a world that revolves around money, it can be stressful to know how we can support our families and make the most of the resources we obtain. We should feel grateful to know that in the Lord’s Church, Jesus Christ provides direction on how temporal resources can be used to further His work. He instructs the saints in Doctrine and Covenants 51 to collect money, food, and clothing to help provide for each other. We also read of the commandment to build a bishop’s storehouse.
