Begin this Come Follow Me lesson by completing the prayer puzzle. Read the scripture on the puzzle together and discuss what it means.
Read together 3 Nephi 12. While you read the younger kids could color the Blessed coloring page and the older kids can complete the Beatitudes Foldable.
Before the lesson make the Beatitudes File Folder Game. Use this to review what you’ve just learned. Discuss what each attribute means.
Read 3 Nephi 12:6 and invite the children to think of a time when they were hungry. Explain that our spirits get hungry just like our bodies and we need to feed our spirit. Use the Nourish Me Cut and Paste Activity to help teach this concept.
As a bonus idea this week study and compare 3 Nephi 14 and Matthew 7. Use the Scripture Study Guides to help.
Learn about the wise man and the foolish man as another bonus activity. Read 3 Nephi 14:21-27. Use the Wise and Foolish scene to help lead a discussion.

Moses grew from a helpless Hebrew infant to Egyptian royalty. Yet that wasn’t where God needed him. As a refugee, Moses was called to be the most significant prophet of the Old Testament. Through Moses, the Lord redeemed His people, established His covenant, and reminded the world that God will not forget those who follow Him.
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.
