Faith, Charity, and Sharing the Gospel
This year’s Come Follow Me lessons focus on building faith in Jesus Christ, practicing charity, and sharing the gospel with others. Here are some ideas for teaching these principles to primary-age children:
- Developing Faith and Charity: Faith and charity are essential qualities for anyone who wants to follow Jesus Christ. Help the children in your life develop these virtues by studying stories of faith in the scriptures and looking for opportunities to serve others.
- Sharing the Gospel: As children grow in faith, encourage them to share their testimonies of Jesus Christ. Simple acts, such as sharing a Book of Mormon or inviting a friend to church, can make a big difference.
