LESSON LIFESAVER Activity
Guess Who Shared the Gospel?
Prophets Teach (crossmatch)

Remind youth of some of the prophets through the ages who shared the gospel of Jesus Christ with others. Here they can read the scriptures and imagine what it would be like to be a prophet—who was sometimes the only one preaching the gospel. From this activity, youth can learn ways they can prepare themselves to share the gospel with others.

To Do Cross Match:  Read the description and guess who the prophet is and the missing words. Read the scriptures by the prophet’s name to make sure you are right. Write in the prophet’s name and the missing words. Draw a line from the description to the prophet.

Answers (top to bottom):
• Alma, prayer, Spirit
• Lehi, visions, dreams
• Abinadi, repent, turn, enemies
• Noah, repent, not, destroy
• Daniel, den, lions, believed, angel, lions’ mouths
• Nephi, no, prepare
• Moses, deliver, Israel bondage, 430
• Enos, record, Nephites, Lamanites

MUTUAL NIGHT, SUNDAY SCHOOL, SEMINARY, FAMILY HOME EVENING ACTIVITY

CANOE CHATS: Go on an imaginary or real canoe ride (on blankets or on water) with someone you would like to get to know better, e.g., a Laurel with a Beehive, or Mia Maid with a Beehive. When you return, report one thing that impressed you about your partner. Talk about getting to know another person before you begin this activity, what to say, how to develop a friendship, and how to help another person feel comfortable. After youth have shared their comments about the canoe trip, talk about how they might fellowship someone who is not active or someone who is a member of another faith.
