The Second Coming of Jesus Christ may be far off… or right around the corner. While we don’t know when He will return in glory, we do know some of the signs preceding His coming and the promised peace that will follow. In Doctrine and Covenants 45:58-59, we are told that following Christ’s return, our “children shall grow up without sin unto salvation…. For the Lord shall be in their midst.” What greater blessing could there be than having the Lord physically present in raising our families?

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!
Scripture Study
Teach your kids about being a “light” to the world by giving them flashlights and turning off the lights in the house. Use the flashlights while you Break The Code to study D&C 45:9. After you finish, talk about what it means to be a “light” to the world.
Go & Do Activity
Read D&C 45:9-10 and talk about how a “standard” was a banner or flag that was carried into battle to help soldiers know where to go. Talk with your family about the different flags they have seen around your neighborhood. Work together to design your own family flag that represents your commitment to the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Hands-On Activity
Gather your family together and make a fort! You can make your fort with things in your house like blankets, sheets, chairs and curtain rods. You can also add some lights to make it extra cozy. Once everyone is gathered into your fort, read and discuss D&C 45:67-71

Go & Do Activity
Show your child a picture of a temple. Teach them that the temple is a holy place. That means it is a place where we can feel Heavenly Father’s spirit and learn more about Him. Heavenly Father blesses those who attend the temple and those who hope to go inside someday. Read D&C 45:32. Teach that our homes and church buildings are also holy places. When we stand in these holy places, we can be protected and feel God’s love for us. Then, play the Stand in Holy Places Musical March Game. Play your favorite Primary songs as you march in a circle, standing in holy places. Talk about ways that your home can be like a temple. Share your testimony about how the temple has blessed your life and your family!

The Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ renewed the truth that Christ was born to save all mankind. Through His mortal ministry, His suffering in Gethsemane and on the cross, His ministry in the Spirit World, and His resurrection, He offers healing to all our sorrows and pains. What greater gift could we be given than that?
Every family comes with their own set of trials and blessings. Parents and children alike have both memorable times together, as well as times in which forgiveness is needed to move forward in love and harmony. As the Proclamation teaches, Jesus Christ is the key to strengthening bonds and repairing relationships that break: “Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ.” Ultimately, all we do as a family in righteousness prepares us to live with God, exalted, as a family in heaven.
Though we have reached the end of the Doctrine and Covenants, the work of the Restoration is still ongoing: “We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God” (Articles of Faith 1:9). Prophets still reveal the will of God. The Church is still growing to fill the Earth.
