April 11-17
Easter
"He will swallow up death in victory"
Materials: Easter Match Game Cards, Construction paper
Opening Song:"I Know that My Savior Loves Me" (Additional Songs for Children, Sacred Music App)
Opening Prayer:
Attention Activity: Show the video "Jesus is Resurrected" from churchofjesuschrist.org
Lesson:
One of the special parts about reading the scriptures is that each volume of scripture testifies of Christ in its own special way. The God of the old Testament, Jehovah, is the same Jesus Christ that performed the atonement, the same Christ that appeared to the Nephites, and the same Savior that appeared to Joseph Smith in the Sacred Grove. Old Testament testifies of the coming of a Messiah. Ancient prophets like Isaiah, Zechariah, and Daniel would write about the Savior.
Activity: Old Testament Easter Match Game
Directions: Before FHE, print and cut out the cards below. Paste the cards onto construction paper or card stock that are equal in size. Shuffle the cards and place them face down in front of the family. Have family members take turns playing the match game. When they pick a card, have them read the scripture passage. There will be an Old Testament passage that prophesies about Christ's ministry and it's match will be a New Testament passage that shows a fulfillment of that prophesy.
Bear your Testimony of the Resurrection of the Savior and how the Old Testament can teach us about the Savior.
Closing Song: "Did Jesus Really Live Again?" (Children's Songbook, 64)
Closing Prayer:
