You may want to see the talk by Sister Tracy Y. Browning, "Tune Your Heart to Jesus Christ: The Sacred Gift of Primary Music," * where she said:

  • * "President Dallin H. Oaks once taught that 'the singing of hymns is one of the best ways to learn the doctrine of the restored gospel.'” 
    
  • * Sister Browning said, "Primary music is one of God's most tender tools for planting the seeds of testimony in the hearts of the Savior's youngest disciples."


See all of the 2026 practice songs January - December for the Sacrament Meeting Presentation (HERE)

After all, who can resist a good sing-along, especially when it leads to those hilariously adorable moments when children belt out their favorite tunes?

PRACTICE SONG #1 "Gethsemane" is coming soon by April 1st. Watch for it around that date.

Jesus climbed the hill to the garden still.

His steps were heavy and slow.

Love and a prayer took Him there

To the place only He could go.

Gethsemane. Jesus loves me,

So He went willingly to Gethsemane.

He felt all that was sad, wicked, or bad,

All the pain we would ever know.

While His friends were asleep, He fought to keep

His promise made long ago.

Gethsemane. Jesus loves me,

So He went willingly to Gethsemane.

The hardest thing that ever was done,

The greatest pain that ever was known,

The biggest battle that ever was won—

This was done by Jesus!

The fight was won by Jesus!

Gethsemane. Jesus loves me,

So He gave His gift to me in Gethsemane.

Gethsemane. Jesus loves me,

So He gives His gift to me from Gethsemane.

ACTIVITY DAY ACTIVITIES just got easier with these instant goal packets from invitations to drop off goal packets (if they don't attend). Plus, you can add your personal twist with little effort.

CLICK Activity Days BANNERS BELOW & assign Mental, Physical, Spiritual, or Social (Luke 2:52 objective - to follow Jesus).



For COME, FOLLOW ME for APRIL week #3 "Stand Still, and See the Salvation of the Lord," you will find two Activity Days Activities featured below. Assign these so children & YOUTH CAN TEACH

#1 (on the left), the Holy Ghost activity matches the CFM Lesson: The Lord can do a "great work" in my life.


#2 (on the right), the "Be a Good Citizen" activity helps to teach the CFM Lesson: Disciples help each other "bear the burden" of doing the Lord's work.

Learning and Living the Gospel - Goal 3

The Holy Ghost let the spirit guide games and scripture tools 


PART 1. Ask the Holy Ghost to comfort me, guide me, and testify to me of truth.


PART 2. Discuss how the Holy Ghost helps you and invites the Spirit as you pray and live God's commandments. 

Serving Others - Goal 3

Be a Good Citizen: Action Reaction Game


TO PLAY: Mix up the card halves and turn them facedown. Divide into teams and take turns turning the cards over to make a match, e.g., "Donate a toy to a charity," matches with "Blesses the life of a needy child." The team with the most cards wins!


For the COME, FOLLOW ME lesson for APRIL (week #3) "Stand Still, and See the Salvation of the Lord" this YOUTH GOAL PLANNER is ideal for the LESSON: The Lord can d a "great work" in my life.


Try this "Learn about the Holy Ghost" PLANNER for a Choice and Accountability goal.


Youth can learn from these scriptures and record their impressions: God will give us a “new heart” and a “new spirit” as we keep His commandments. He will show us things to come. He will give us love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance as we live and walk in the Spirit. We can receive this gift (confirmation) at baptism. If we trust, the Spirit can enlighten our minds and bring us joy. 

You and your class or family will love these during the holidays to bring the gospel of Jesus Christ to CHURCH & HOME. To find them:


CHOICE #1 Hover over the INDEX in the menu to find the topic. Then choose games from the Post-and-Present activities or game activities by age.
