On the Lord’s Errand: The Life of Thomas S. Monson

Learning & Living the Gospel #4 ~ Read a recent conference address given by the prophet. Decide what you can do to follow the prophet, and do it.

It is the 4th part of the lesson of the Prophet and Apostles. I am thinking of make it an easy and interesting one. I learned that our church did produce a video on President Thomas S. Monson, our living Prophet.

It featured the biography of President Thomas S. Monson’s life and highlights some of his great memories and experiences.

Included in this video are interviews with President Monson, family members, and friends.

I personally watched it before I decided for this activity for the children.

I felt so touched and grateful for he is our prophet, as the Lord prepared His Servant from very young age.

And, President Monson is no other just like an ordinary person like you and me, and he has a very kind, charitable and like to serve heart and mind.

We are using tablet to watch it. Both naughty Issac and Annabelle not really concentrate while watching the video, it is an hour video.

It might be too long for them, because there are a lot of interviews and talking in the video.

I am the one whom more love it ! I love what he said in the end of the video:

“I have a testimony of this great work in which we are engaged. I don’t know when I first obtained it. I think it came step by step, from goodly parents. I’ve always had a testimony. The sweetest experience i know in life is to feel a prompting and act upon it and later find out that it was the fulfilment of someone’s prayer or someone’s need. I always want the lord to know that if he needs an errand run, Tom Monson will run that errand for Him. I’m so grateful for His example, and that’s who we serve.”

                     

I am planning of make it a family home evening program that we shall watch it together a family.
