Come, Follow Me Jun 10-Jun 16: "Not as I Will, but as Thou Wilt"
Welcome to Simply Family Home Evening!!! I'm so happy that you are here today. If you are returning for more family home evening lesson ideas for the New Testament Come, Follow Me curriculum I hope that means that you have found something valuable here before. If you have just found us, welcome! I am so excited that you are here. We use the Come, Follow Me - For Primary manual as the base for our lessons to help you teach your families the lessons each week. We hope you find some value in your time here.
This week we are learning a lot about the sacrament. The title of the lesson in Come, Follow Me is "Not as I Will, but as Thou Wilt" and we are reading Matthew 26; Mark 14; Luke 22; and John 18. I am so so excited to talk about the sacrament. We have really been working on our reverence during the sacrament in our family. I am excited to really spend some time discussing it this week and giving my kids a purpose behind the "please, please, please be reverent and think about Jesus" plea that I send down the pew every week! 😂

The Savior Suffers in Gethsemane
New Testament Stories
Chapter 51: "Jesus Suffers in the Garden of Gethsemane"
Lesson:
Watch the videos; read the scriptures or use a combination of both.
Have the kids close their eyes and think of the time in their lives when they have been the saddest or have been the most scared or in the most pain.
After they have had a couple of minute so think about it, let them share if they want to. Then show the picture of Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane. Tell them how Jesus Christ felt how scared, hurt, or sad they were when He suffered in the Garden of Gethsemane so that He would best know how to comfort them when they feel that way.
Get the long stick. Have your kids hold it horizontally and try to get through the door. Tell them that just like they can’t get through the door with that stick without some help, we couldn’t return to live with Heavenly Father without some help. Jesus Christ suffered in Gethsemane for our sins so that we wouldn’t have to, so that we could return to live with our Heavenly Father again.
The sacrament helps me remember Jesus Christ and His sacrifice for me
