Begin this Come Follow Me lesson by showing the world map. Let one child point to Jerusalem, where Christ was crucified and another child point to where the Nephites lived.
Discuss how the Nephites knew that Christ had died because of the signs. Read 3 Nephi 8 and let the children use the Lacing Cards as you discuss the signs.
Continue reading 3 Nephi 9:1-12 and let the older children complete the Destruction of the Land Matching Activity as you read.
Teach how Christ then showed himself to the Nephite people. Let the children make the Christ Descending Out of Heaven Activity.
Show the 3 Nephi 9:18 print. Read the scripture together and talk about what it means. Let each child wear an I Am The Light pin.
For a bonus activity this week read 3 Nephi 10:6. Let the children create the Christ Gathers His People Plate Craft. Discuss ways you can help Christ gather his people.
Another bonus idea you could do this week is watch the video The Testament: One Fold One Shepherd of Jesus Christ. This video depicts what was happening in America leading up to Christ’s appearance to the Nephites. There is a QR Code on your lesson summary page for a direct link to the video.

Each day, we face trials and setbacks in our lives. From bad weather and traffic to messy homes and sick kids, difficulties seem like they won’t stop coming. We must choose to carry on and plead with our Heavenly Father for help and to see the good in our lives. He will always answer those prayers and allow us to see our progress in the path that leads back into His presence.
We often keep things of value in special places: important documents kept in a secured file or safe, dinner china in a display cabinet, or treats too good to share with kids up on the top shelf. These things are kept safe and out of easy reach for good reasons, but there are other things of value we need to make sure are always available to us. Our scriptures are one of these things.
We all make mistakes as parents. Sometimes our attention is wrongly distracted from a child’s needs, or perhaps we raised our voice in anger when we should have been calm. Do we seek forgiveness from both the Lord and our children when we do these things? Do we sincerely forgive our children when they err? As the Savior Jesus Christ plainly explains in Doctrine and Covenants 64, forgiveness is a crucial component of achieving peace in the home.
