Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 28 | July 8-14 | Alma 23-29

Change is a difficult process, but one that brings both immediate and eternbal rewards. The people taught by Ammon and his brethren were blessed by change and had their hearts filled with joy as their faith in Christ grew. A key decision in their efforts to change was to lay down their “weapons of… rebellion” (Alma 23:7). Doing so eliminated a practice that had kept them separated from the love and power of Jesus Christ.

Even in our day, “weapons of rebellion” can keep our families from feeling the Spirit in our homes. We can “bury” them by doing the little things: choose to say a kinder word when we’re upset, offer a small service to show love, and listen to a loved one in their moment of need. These are things even kids can do to feel a real difference in the home.

This week’s Book of Mormon activities invite the Spirit and foster unity in your home. These inspiring lessons teach straight from the scriptures and include everything you need to make Come, Follow Me fun for your kids!

Toddler Bundle Lessons & Activities​

For kids ages 1-4 at home and in nursery or sunbeams. The toddler bundle Includes a full lesson plan with THREE activities that align with scripture written by an early childhood educator. These include a coloring page, another printable activity, and a movement activity that helps young children understand the scriptures. Here are a couple of highlights from this week’s lesson.

Jesus Brings Me Joy

Go & Do Activity

In Alma 26 & 29 we learn that Jesus brings us joy. What does joy mean? It means true, lasting happiness. The kind of happiness you find from living the gospel. Together with your children sing, ” If You’re Happy” (Children’s Songbook, pg. 266) and be sure to do the actions with clapping hands and so on. Then, as a family, draw a picture of something that brings you true joy. You can work with your toddler or they can do it independently if they want. Two-year-olds will likely need support. Then color your picture and display it on your fridge all week. To finish your lesson, hold up a picture of Jesus and as a family say aloud three times, “Jesus brings me joy!” End with your testimony of how Christ has brought joy to your life.

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

“I Will Order All Things for Your Good”

Have you ever had a powerful spiritual experience and felt the joy of God’s love, only to feel down again when normal life resumes? Or an hour where your children were seemingly perfect and kind to one another, but the rest of the day was awful? This might have been how the early saints felt by the end of the year following the dedication of the Kirtland Temple. Life itself didn’t get easier with the temple’s completion. Financial troubles and increased persecution made enduring to the end difficult for many saints. Yet those who persevered were blessed not only with strength but also with direction on how they could be a blessing to God’s children even amidst their own trials. The Lord’s comforting words to them are extended to us today as we also can help others feel loved during our own struggles: “Let thy heart be of good cheer before my face… for I, the Lord, have a great work for thee to do” (D&C 112:4,6).

“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).
