. . . THE CHURCH WAS RESTORED . . .

Doctrine and Covenants 20–21

The Church of Jesus Christ has been restored.

On April 6, 1830, Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery gathered with others to organize the restored Church of Jesus Christ. How can you help the children you teach to understand the importance of this event?

. . . PREPARE FOR BAPTISM . . .

Doctrine and Covenants 20:37, 71–74

I am preparing to be baptized.

The children you teach are preparing to be baptized. Help them understand what it means to be baptized and what they can do to be ready.

  • Show a picture of a child being baptized (see Gospel Art Book, no. 104), and ask the children to point out things they notice. Read or summarize Doctrine and Covenants 20:71–74, and help the children see how the picture matches the instructions in these verses. Testify that we should follow the Savior’s example and be baptized in the way He has commanded.

  • Summarize Doctrine and Covenants 20:37. What do we learn from this verse about people who want to be baptized? Show pictures of ways the children can prepare for baptism, such as serving others and praying.

  • Sing a song about baptism, such as “When I Am Baptized” (Children’s Songbook, 103)

    Watch “The Baptism of Jesus” (biblevideos.ChurchofJesusChrist.org). Invite the children to share their feelings about being baptized. SEE BELOW

When temptations come our way, if we will listen, the Holy Ghost will remind us that we have promised to remember our Savior and obey the commandments of God.” – Elder Robert D Hales

. . . SACRED ORDINANCES: BAPTISM & SACRAMENT . . .

Doctrine and Covenants 20:75–79

The sacrament helps me remember Jesus Christ.

How can you help the children better understand why we partake of the sacrament each week?

  • Read Doctrine and Covenants 20:77 to the children. Ask them to stand when they hear what we should remember when we eat the sacrament bread. Do the same with verse 79. (You may want to point out that we drink water instead of wine.) How can we show that we remember Jesus?
    DOWNLOAD Remember Jesus: Sacrament Symbols puzzle (HERE or below)

  • Tell the children about a time when you made a promise and kept it. Invite them to tell similar stories of their own. Explain that when we take the sacrament, we make promises. Read Doctrine and Covenants 20:77, emphasizing the promises we make to “always remember him” and “keep his commandments.” Invite the children to share a time when they remembered the Savior or obeyed a commandment.

    Doctrine and Covenants 20:37, 75–79

    Sacred ordinances are an essential part of the restored Church.

    When the Church was organized, the Lord taught His Saints about sacred ordinances, including baptism and the sacrament.
    DOWNLOAD Return To Heaven Ordinance Opportunity Game (HERE or below) 

    As you read the instructions “concerning the manner of baptism” in verse 37, think about your own baptism. Did you have any of the feelings described in this verse? Do you have them now? Ponder what you can do to keep vibrant your “determination to serve [Jesus Christ] to the end.”

    As you read about the sacrament in Doctrine and Covenants 20:75–79, try to read these sacred prayers from the perspective of someone hearing them for the first time. What insights do you receive about the sacrament? about yourself? How might these insights affect the way you prepare to take the sacrament this week?

. . . MY PROMISE TO FOLLOW JESUS . . .

Doctrine and Covenants 20:37, 77, 79

When I was baptized, I promised to follow Jesus Christ.

Many of the children in your class have been baptized. Remind them of the covenant they made “to take upon them the name of Jesus Christ” (Doctrine and Covenants 20:37).

  • Invite a few children to come prepared to share what they felt or experienced when they were baptized. Perhaps they could bring a picture from their baptismal day to show the class. Why did they choose to be baptized? How has being baptized and receiving the Holy Ghost blessed them?

  • Read together Doctrine and Covenants 20:77, and ask the children to identify the promises we make during the sacrament. To help the children understand that there are things they can do every day to “always remember” Jesus Christ, invite one child to act out something he or she can do to remember the Savior. Ask the others to guess what the action is. According to verse 77, how are we blessed when we always remember the Savior?

  • Help the children compare Doctrine and Covenants 20:37 with verse 77 to find a phrase that is repeated in both. Show the children something that has a name on it (such as a brand name or a personal name). What does the name tell us about the item? Read together Doctrine and Covenants 20:37 to discover whose name we take upon ourselves when we are baptized. What does it mean to take Jesus Christ’s name upon us? How should we think and act because we have this name.
