Another Testament of Jesus Christ

Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids

Week 2 | December 30 - January 5

This is the first lesson for our Book of Mormon study! We hope you are just as excited as we are! If you have a workbook, now is time for you to start using them. You will find the summary pages and instruction sheets in the parent/teacher manual and all of the materials in the kids activities book. If you didn’t get a workbook but want one be sure to come back to our website for volume 2 preorders to sign up for the ongoing subscription and have the workbooks mailed to your door each quarter without having to remember to purchase again.

Begin the lesson by reading the introductory page in the Book of Mormon. A fun way to keep everyone engaged is by doing popcorn reading. This means one member of the family reads a few sentences and then calls on another family member. Answer the questionnaire as you read.

Print the 18×24 scripture poster for your family and display it in your home all year, or print the smaller version for each family member. Each week write one verse from your reading in one of the shapes and at the end of the year you’ll have 50 favorite scriptures from the Book of Mormon. Or choose one scripture every month for 12 favorite scriptures at the end of the year.

You may notice that our summary sheets are formatted a little differently. But don’t worry, we still provide one main lesson and multiple bonus activities you can do throughout the week.

This week we provide two QR codes to watch videos about the Book of Mormon and being a witness of Christ.

Learn about being a seer. Get two rocks and write Urim on one and Thummim on the other. Teach about how these are similar to what Joseph Smith used to translate the Book of Mormon. Complete the Be A Seer page and Joseph Smith coloring page in your materials.

The Book of Mormon teaches about the Plan of Salvation. Print cut and laminate the Plan of Salvation puzzle and talk about each piece as you put the puzzle together. It will be one large stripe when it is completed. 

Make sure to read your summary sheet for more details and more activity ideas.

“A House Unto My Name”

Building the city of Nauvoo was not the first time the Saints had to begin again, but it was the first time they could start new from the ground up. As the saints gathered from Missouri to build this new city, many were sick and still reeling from the harsh persecution they had suffered. The Prophet Joseph administered to the saints, healing them both physically and spiritually. Through His Prophet, the Lord promised the saints that, “If ye labor with all your might, I will consecrate that spot that it shall be made holy” (Doctrine and Covenants 124:44)

“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…”.
