For this week’s Come Follow Me Lesson, focus on the Christmas story. We have provided 12 Nativity Pieces you can use in several ways. Use one of our ideas or come up with your own.
Put the nativity pieces on popsicle sticks, magnets, or transfer paper for felt and let the children use them to tell the story of Christmas.
Use the nativity pieces with names on them. Punch a hole in the top and tie string around it to make a name tag. Assign everyone a character to play and act out the Christmas story as a family.
On the back of the nativity pieces write a Christmas song (suggestions can be found on the lesson summary page). Let each person choose a piece one at a time, sing the song, and let that person add the character to the nativity.
Use the Scripture Story Guide to study about the Christmas story in the scriptures.
Let each person make a Christmas Ornament. Discuss what you’ve learned throughout the year from the Book of Mormon.
We’ve also included a Christmas Coloring Page.

The Lord Jesus Christ was pleased to see saints gathering from many places as the restored gospel began to spread across the earth. As the Church grew, the Lord gave commandments to organize the saints. These commandments would encourage them to live in harmony with one another.
As the Lord Jesus Christ continued to reveal His restored Church through the Prophet Joseph, the early Saints were instructed to gather in Kirtland, Ohio, leaving behind their comfortable homes and businesses. The idea of living according to God’s way and dedicating their lives to the Lord was an exciting prospect for many of these saints. The sacrifices they made along the way were not easy, but their work still impacts our lives today through the global blessings of the gospel.
The First Vision wasn’t the only time Jesus Christ appeared to the Prophet Joseph. On Easter Sunday in 1836, the Savior stood in the Kirtland temple and declared, “For behold, I have accepted this house, and my name shall be here” (D&C 110:7). For the first time in millennia, a temple of God was again on the earth.
