The lesson format is a little bit different this week than usual. Use your lesson summary page to follow along each day for the reading and activity to do. Also included on the summary page are some creative ideas for how to keep your children engaged while reading as a family.
Day 1: Read Alma chapter 17. Discuss what it means to be an instrument in the hands of the Lord. Complete the story of Ammon sequencing activity to review the story and finish by completing the coloring page.
Day 2: Before reading color and create the stick puppets. As you read chapter 18 let the children hold up the stick puppet when Ammon or King Lamoni is talking. A key has been provided at the bottom of the instructions page.
Day 3: Read chapter 19 and color and create the King Lamoni body puppet. Let the children move King Lamoni to laying asleep then awake. It may also be fun to read this chapter on your bed and let the children act out being King Lamoni. Finish by coloring the I Can Repent like King Lamoni coloring page.
Day 4: Give each child a map to Middoni activity page. As you chapter 20 have them draw in the things that happen along the way to Middoni.
Day 5: Share some personal missionary experiences with your family. Explain that we don’t have to go on a mission to share the gospel. We can be missionaries now. Read chapter 21 then let the children draw ways they can be a missionary. Use the world map as a playdough map and explain that the gospel will be preached all over the world.
Day 6: Read chapter 22. King Lamoni explains basic truth’s to his father. Color the basic truths coloring page.

Abraham lived a life of violence and peace, of trauma and healing, and of promises and faith. Through every trial, Abraham trusted in the Lord and chose to follow Him even when his world was at its darkest. He was rewarded with a covenant that encompasses all of God’s children and will last into the eternities. This covenant and its blessings are extended to our families today.
The phrase, “found grace in the eyes of the Lord (Moses 8:27), has at least two meanings that can bless our families. One is that Noah lived in a way that allowed the Lord to strengthen him and his family during difficult circumstances. A second meaning is that Noah discovered the peace that comes from looking at life through God’s eyes. By looking at life with an eternal perspective, Noah “walked with God, as did also his three sons” (Moses 8:27) even in a world filled with wickedness.
In less than one generation, the world God created was filled with wickedness. One exception was Enoch, a prophet who taught his people how to live the gospel of Jesus Christ. As Enoch talked with God, he was amazed to see that the Divine Creator would cry at the fall of His children: “How is it thou canst weep?” (Moses 7:31). God responded, “They are the workmanship of mine own hands” (Moses 7:32). He was sad because each child of God is precious to Him. He grieves for each one of us when our choices take us away from Him.
