“Feast upon the words of Christ; for behold, the words of Christ; for behold, the words of Christ will tell you all things what ye should do”
2 Nephi 32:3
This year 2016 Church outline for Sharing Time theme is ‘I Know the Scriptures Are True’.
This month theme is ‘Prayer is Reverent Communication between God and Me.’ Today we did it a bit different way.
Our Primary President Sister Jennifer have arranged our branch Missionary Elders to teach the lesson to the children during the Sharing Time. She feels that it is very important for the children to love and teach them search the scriptures.
Elder Forsyth was turned into a Scriptures Power Hero as Sister Jennifer prepared a yellow colour Superhero Cape and a big blue colour lettering “S” on a red colour round felt cloth which he pinned it on his chest position.
All the children were so excited when they saw the 2 Elders appeared in the room.
The scriptures are the word of God. Elder Forsyth was teaching the children to search the scriptures.
He wrote some scriptures verses on the board under some of the wordings related, such as Love, Repentance, Humility, Kindness, Forgiveness, Service, Sacred, Family, Anger, Bully, etc.
The children were asked to search all those verses and mark it on their scriptures with the post-it notes which Elder Mullins was distributing together with the stationery sets.
They were sitting down on the floor to search and mark the scriptures. It was quite a fun thing for the kids. Both Elder Forsyth and Elder Mullins were helping the children searching the scriptures too.
This activity is a continuation of the early year challenge from the Church – to give children opportunities to share what they have learned from their scriptures reading, and establish a habit of regular scripture study.
After the lesson, we took a group photo with the children together with our Scriptures Power Super Heroes today!
And, they are our Scripture Power Heroes this week! Elder Forsyth and Elder Mullins were holding the Book of Mormon!
