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.

Learning is a lifelong journey. While we tend to think of our years in school as the only time in life when we need to gain an education, we know through Doctrine and Covenants 88 that the Lord instructs His faithful to create places of learning in their own homes (D&C 88:119). How do we do that?
Sometimes, things just don’t work out the way we had planned: dinner gets burnt, the car won’t start, or you unexpectedly get laid off from your job. You’ve been promised blessings for keeping the commandments. It might be tempting to wonder where those blessings are when ill fortune strikes.
What is “godliness?” Doctrine and Covenants Section 84 uses the word to describe the way that God prepares us to return to live with Him one day. We do this by inviting our children to be baptized and prepare for the temple. Through participating in priesthood ordinances, we increase our access to the priesthood and experience “the power of godliness” as we come to see God’s presence in our lives every day (Doctrine and Covenants 84:20).
