Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 21 | May 19-25 | Doctrine and Covenants 49-50

During times of trial and difficulty, we might want to know why we’re going through them and how we can have happy times again. We might not know all the answers right now, but we are promised that one day, we will. In Doctrine and Covenants 50:24, we read that as we “continueth in God,” the light and knowledge we receive from Him will grow “brighter and brighter until the perfect day.”

We can find assurance that He cares about us through the many ways we can invite His light into our lives: prayer, scripture study, making and keeping covenants, service, and so on. When we hear His voice, either directly through the Holy Ghost or through living prophets, we should feel joy for being “accounted of God worthy to receive” (DC 50:34).

THIS WEEK’S COME FOLLOW ME HIGHLIGHTS​

Elementary Bundle Lessons & Activities​

We have some great activities and resources to help assist you in celebrating a Christ-centered Easter this year! We recommend picking the activities that work best for you and your family. We think just a few activities will allow you to celebrate Easter, but also allow you time to focus on our Savior and what He has done for us. Our hope is that you will find something meaningful for your family to help celebrate this special holiday!

Footsteps to Christ

Hands-On Activity

Create a path of footprints leading to a picture of Christ. To create the footprints, trace your children’s feet with chalk, go to a park and have them step in the sand, or use the Footsteps to Christ printable. Read D&C 49:12-14. Each time your children make a footprint, have them tell you one way they can follow in Christ’s footsteps.

Living the Full Gospel

Surprise Activity

As a family, read D&C 49:2 and talk about how we have the fullness of the gospel. Then do the “In Part, But Not All” activity using ingredients to one of your favorite family treats to help your children learn this concept. Share your testimony of the fullness of the gospel and how it has blessed your family.

The Good Shepherd

Coloring Page

Read D&C 50:40-46 and explain how the “Good Shepherd” (Jesus) is watching over and preparing us for His second coming. Then, let your children color the “Good Shepherd” coloring page.

Toddler Bundle Lessons & Activities​

For kids ages 1-4 at home and in nursery or sunbeams.

Rainbows After Rain

Hands-On Activity

Help your child draw a rainbow with crayons on a sheet of paper. Teach that rainbows appear in the sky after it has rained. Rainbows help us remember the blessings that Heavenly Father gives us after the rain has cleaned the earth. Read D&C 49:12-14 and explain that baptism provides the way for us to become clean. With your child, sing the song “When I Am Baptized” (Children’s Songbook, p. 103) and watch the video (click or scan the QR code). Share your testimony about your baptism day. You could even show your child baptism pictures if you have them! Complete the When I’m Baptized mini book with your child and explain that they can choose to be baptized, too!

The toddler bundle includes a lesson plan and three activities every week. Grab the toddler bundle in our subscription.

“It Is Thy House, a Place of Thy Holiness”

March 27, 1836, was a special date both on earth and in heaven. For the first time since 70 AD, a temple of God was available for men and women to worship in. Many saints who were present for the dedication saw angels celebrating the return of temple blessings to the world. The Lord Jesus Christ shared His own joy of the temple’s completion in Doctrine and Covenants 110:6-7, when he said, “let the hearts of all my people rejoice, who have, with their might, built this house to my name. For behold, I have accepted this house…”.

“The Order of the Son of God”

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is organized according to the Lord’s instructions, as detailed in this week’s reading in the Doctrine and Covenants. One of the ways we can apply the Lord’s guidance in these sections to our families is to establish councils within our homes. We should, with our children, “sit in council with them, and to teach them their duty, edifying one another” (D&C 107:85).

“After Much Tribulation … Cometh the Blessing”

Zion’s Camp was less of an army marching to liberate Missouri and more of a multi-week training in how to be a true saint. Those who showed they trusted in the Lord by following the Prophet Joseph received a massive boost to their faith, giving them strength for the road ahead: “That they themselves may be prepared, and that my people may be taught more perfectly, and have experience” (Doctrine and Covenants 105:10).
