The Jaredite people were, at times, extraordinarily blessed for their righteousness. At other times, their pride and wickedness led to many problems that could not be overcome without the help of the Lord: for “when they had humbled themselves sufficiently… the Lord did show forth his power unto them in preserving them” (Ether 9:35). Repentance, a key principle in these chapters, is essential to finding peace no matter what is going on in the world.
Repentance in our own families has many forms. As parents and teachers, we can choose to stop our “busy-ness” and listen to our children. We can encourage kinder voices in the home. We can set the example of daily prayer and scripture study. Choosing to do these things is repentance, a clear sign that we want the Lord to always be present in our lives.
This week’s Come Follow Me FHE lessons teaches these principles from the scriptures themselves. Each lesson includes 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.

If you missed last week, see the previous lesson for the first five chapters of your Tale of Jaredite Comic Book. As you dive into Ether 6-11, follow along using the comic book to study the scriptures in a fun and exciting way! You can print this week’s pages for your comic book in color or black and white and add your special touches by coloring it yourself.
Here are a few ideas of how you might incorporate the Tale of the Jaredites Comic Book into your Come, Follow Me study:
We hope the comic book will inspire you to find the personal lessons within the Brother of Jared’s story. As his family arrives in the promised land, their experiences can serve as a reminder of what is most important in our lives: our faith in Jesus Christ.

For kids ages 1-4 at home and in nursery or sunbeams.
This week, we’ll be sharing the gospel with your little ones using the activity book in the Elementary Bundle. Be sure to use the activity book for younger children (Level 1, Recommended for ages 3-6). Print your activity book pages, then cut all of them in half, except the cover. You will fold the cover in half to help keep the pages together. Put all your pages in order inside the cover and then staple along the left-hand edge. Make one book for each of your children.
Hands-On Activity
Remind your child of the journey that the Jaredites were taking to the promised land in a boat. When the Jaredites arrived in the promised land, they were so happy that they thanked Heavenly Father for helping them get there safely. Describe how when we praise God, we thank Him for our blessings or the good things that happen to us. When we remember what the Lord has done for us, it brings us peace and happiness. Ask, “Are there things you can think of that you can thank God for?” Attach the Thankful Show and Tell label to a brown paper bag before you begin your activity. Tell your child to get five things that they are grateful for and put them in the bag. Remind them that it must fit inside. Then, either with your whole family or just with you, have them show and tell what is inside their bags. Ask your child why they are thankful for those things. Share some of things you are grateful for in return! Emphasize how important it is to recognize the things that the Lord has done for us.

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.
