“I Know this Church is True”

FHE Lesson — “I Know this Church is True”  Principle — Bearing Testimony

“Parents and teachers should help children learn what a testimony is and when it is appropriate for them to express it. It may be best to have younger children learn to share their testimonies at such times as family home evening or when giving talks in Primary until they are old enough to do so in a fast and testimony meeting.” From First Presidency letter, 2 May 2002

Activity — Bearing Testimony

“Anchored very early to the first principles of the gospel.” ~M. Russell Ballard

A testimony is very personal and will be a little different for each person, but a testimony of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ should be anchored to the first principles of the gospel.

This BEARING TESTIMONY Activity will help your little ones begin to anchor their testimonies to these principles.
