Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 42 | October 14-20 | 3 Nephi 20–26

Before concluding His ministry with the Nephites, Jesus Christ taught of the covenant that will bring peace to all who follow Him. He taught the Nephites His commandments that, if they kept, would help them stay close to Him. It is in making and keeping these covenants that unite the House of Israel across the world. Jesus promises that if we keep our covenants, “My kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed” (3 Nephi 22:10).

THIS WEEK’S COME FOLLOW ME HIGHLIGHTS​

Elementary Bundle Lessons & Activities​

This week, teach your children the chapters of Alma 43-52. You will find an activity book for your children (one for ages 3-6 and one for ages 7+). 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 to keep it together. Make one book for each of your children (see lesson for details).

Tithing and Blessings

Scripture Study

Throughout time, God’s people have been commanded to pay tithes. Study 3 Nephi 24:7-12. Help your family to see why we’ve been asked to pay tithing. Use the “1/10 Counting Sheet” to show your child what we’ve been asked to give. Emphasize the blessings we receive for doing so. You might consider teaching your child how to use a tithing slip!

Search the Scriptures!

Go & Do Activity

From 3 Nephi 23:1, we learn that God wants us to search the scriptures. Dive into the scriptures with the “Book of Mormon Scavenger Hunt!” Use the checklist to search for words, items, references and illustrations to find throughout the book. Help your family see just how special and important the scriptures are.

Purpose in Prayer

Scripture Study

The Savior instructs us to search the scriptures and hearken unto His words in 3 Nephi 23:1, 5. Let the scriptures be a tool to help you be successful in understanding the Book of Mormon Mad Gab scripture phrases. If you can’t understand or “hearken” to the phrase being said, turn to the scriptures and search, search, search!

Toddler Bundle Lessons & Activities​

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.

Edible Family Tree

Hands-On Activity

Print, and laminate “My Edible Family Tree” mats for your child to create an edible family tree. Prepare for this activity by gathering some Oreos or round shortbread cookies, frosting and cookie toppings like sprinkles, pretzels, mini chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and more. Read 3 Nephi 25:5-6. Explain how to turn the hearts of the children to their father means to think and learn about our family. Place the mat in front of your child. Starting with themselves, have them place their Oreo or cookie in their photo frame. Cover with frosting and add toppings to make the cookie look like their face. Mini chocolate chips or pretzels work great for hair. Slice a chocolate chip in half for a nose, and use colored sprinkles for eyes, etc. Move down your family line as you teach your child about the generations of people in their family. Tell them a special fact about their family member as they make them out of a cookie. When you’re all finished filling your frames, enjoy the scrumptious snacks you created!

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).
