Once again, we were focusing on following the prophet. One of his most recent Conference talks was about Keeping the Commandments. I thought it was an amazing talk as I read over it, and very appropriate for our day. I had hoped we would have the chance to make and fly a kite. But that just didn't happen. It would have been a great object lesson. But then again, I'm sure we'll cover this topic again in years ahead. So maybe next time ;).
Follow the Prophet: Keep the Commandments
Song: "Keep the Commandments"
Scripture: Doctrine & Covenants 21:4-5: "Wherefore...thou shalt give heed unto
all [the Prophet's] words and commandments which he shall give unto you
as he receiveth them, walking in all holiness before me; For his word
ye shall receive as if from mine own mouth, in all patience and faith."
Lesson: we read a few excerpts from this talk.
Activity: We watched videos about listening to and obeying rules and guidelines for safety. One video was about a boy who didn't listen to his parents' rule to always wear shoes (not flip flops) in the dessert (they lived somewhere with scorpions) and he ended up getting stung. Unaware of what would happen, but fearing the worst, the parents and the boy thought he might die. The other video talked about rock climbing and the guidelines for doing so safely (with a buddy, using anchors, etc).
Treat: Was supposed to be chocolate pudding. But Lynnaea didn't eat her dinner, so that didn't happen.
