Come, Follow Me during COVID
Sarah F., age 10, Pas-de-Calais, France
During the COVID-19 quarantine, I did school at home with Papa. We did my regular schoolwork, but we also studied the Come, Follow Me Primary manual. Here are some of the things I did:
-
I made a crown that I wear at home when I help my parents. I want to serve like King Benjamin.
-
I colored a heart-shaped badge. It reminds me that when I was baptized, I took Christ’s name upon me.
-
I drew a picture of Joseph Smith and colored it. It reminds me that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God.
-
I did a paper-cutting activity about the prophet Abinadi in the Book of Mormon. I thought about how I must also stand up for the truth.
-
I colored a picture of the baptism of Jesus Christ. It reminds me that when I was baptized, I made a covenant with my Heavenly Father.
Because I studied Come, Follow Me, I think Heavenly Father helped me with school. At first I made lots of mistakes in my homework. Then my dad asked me to start by saying a prayer. After the prayer, I understood better. Soon I was no longer making as many mistakes. When my teachers received my homework, they would say, “Congratulations, Sarah! Keep doing what you are doing!”
I successfully completed my school year. And school at home went well, because we always started with a prayer, just like we do when we study Come, Follow Me.
