“Small and Simple Things,” Liahona, Aug. 2011, 8–10

Small & Simple Things

“By small and simple things are great things brought to pass” (Alma 37:6).

Call for Children’s Stories

The Liahona is looking for true stories written by adults and based on the experiences of children from around the world. Stories must be based on actual events; however, names, dialogue, and minor details may be added or changed to help make the story complete.

The stories should show children learning and applying gospel principles in their lives, especially as the gospel helps them overcome real-life temptations and conflicts. The stories should reveal the thoughts and feelings of the child involved.

Experiences from your own childhood, those of your children, or incidents you have witnessed in the lives of children around you are good sources for story ideas.

Some topic ideas include faith, baptism, honesty, forgiveness, testimony, family home evening, following the prophet, helping others, following Jesus Christ, the Holy Ghost, or any of the principles in My Gospel Standards.

Submissions must include the author’s name, address, telephone number, e-mail address (if available), ward or branch, and stake or district. E-mail stories to liahona@ldschurch.org or send them to:
