Have you ever been through a difficult trial you felt would never end? While we often must wait for answers to prayers, we can rely on our family and friends to help us and point us towards Jesus Christ. Years of fighting between Lamanites and Nephites must have weighed heavily on Moroni, Healaman, and Pahoran. Their relationship was critical for supporting each other during this troubling period.
As your family goes through this week’s lesson, be prepared to share experiences from your life that have strengthened you and helped you stay firm in the faith, no matter how difficult or how long the trial.
This week’s Come Follow Me FHE lessons teaches principles straight from the scriptures. They include everything you need to make Come, Follow Me fun for your kids! Join our membership for only $10 a month, and you’ll gain access to a treasure trove of resources to strengthen your family’s spiritual foundation and growth.

For kids ages 1-4 at home and in nursery or sunbeams. The toddler bundle Includes a full lesson plan with THREE activities that align with scripture written by an early childhood educator. These include a coloring page, another printable activity, and a movement activity that helps young children understand the scriptures. Here are a couple of highlights from this week’s lesson.
Go & Do Activity
Teach your child about Pahoran’s example and his reaction when he was accused of not helping Moroni when he needed it. Pahoran chose not to be angry at what Moroni had written to him. Read Alma 61:9. Ask your child, “Have you ever been angry when someone said you did something you didn’t?” You could provide them relevant examples like a time when a sibling got upset that his special toy was taken but it wasn’t you who took it. Ask, “How did that make you feel?” Talk about how it’s important to control our anger especially when there are misunderstandings involved. Play the “Animal Calm Down Cards” with your child while giving them strategies they can use to soften their anger. Draw one card at a time and have them do a similar action to what that animal would do.
The toddler bundle includes a lesson plan and three activities every week. Grab the toddler bundle in our subscription.

Abraham lived a life of violence and peace, of trauma and healing, and of promises and faith. Through every trial, Abraham trusted in the Lord and chose to follow Him even when his world was at its darkest. He was rewarded with a covenant that encompasses all of God’s children and will last into the eternities. This covenant and its blessings are extended to our families today.
The phrase, “found grace in the eyes of the Lord (Moses 8:27), has at least two meanings that can bless our families. One is that Noah lived in a way that allowed the Lord to strengthen him and his family during difficult circumstances. A second meaning is that Noah discovered the peace that comes from looking at life through God’s eyes. By looking at life with an eternal perspective, Noah “walked with God, as did also his three sons” (Moses 8:27) even in a world filled with wickedness.
In less than one generation, the world God created was filled with wickedness. One exception was Enoch, a prophet who taught his people how to live the gospel of Jesus Christ. As Enoch talked with God, he was amazed to see that the Divine Creator would cry at the fall of His children: “How is it thou canst weep?” (Moses 7:31). God responded, “They are the workmanship of mine own hands” (Moses 7:32). He was sad because each child of God is precious to Him. He grieves for each one of us when our choices take us away from Him.
