Sharing Time February 2014 Week 1 Outline
Week 1: Heavenly Father has a Plan for us
IDENITFY THE DOCTRINE (saying the doctrine): Have
three children come to the front of the room. Have the first say,
“Heavenly Father,” the second, “has a plan,” and the third, “for His
children.” Divide the children into three groups, and ask each group to
stand and, with the help of the three children as leaders, repeat their
part of the sentence. Repeat several times, giving each group a chance
to say each phrase.
ENCOURAGE UNDERSTANDING (reading scriptures):
Explain that before we were born, we lived in heaven with our heavenly
parents; Heavenly Father wanted us to become more like Him, so He
presented a plan. Divide the board into three sections and label them
“Premortal Life,” “Mortal Life,” and “Life after Death.” Briefly discuss
each (see True to the Faith: A Gospel Reference [2004], 115–17). Divide
the children into small groups, and give each group one or more of the
following scriptures: Genesis 1:1; Alma 12:24; Alma 34:32; Alma 40:12;
Doctrine and Covenants 76:62; Moses 4:2; Abraham 3:22–23. Invite each
group to read their scripture, tell the other children what their
scripture is about, and write the reference under the correct heading on
the board.
ENCOURAGE APPLICATION (drawing pictures): Give each
child a piece of paper divided into thirds. Ask them to draw something
that represents each part of God’s plan (premortal life, mortal life,
and life after death). Encourage them to share their pictures with their
families at home. Sing together “I Will Follow God’s Plan” (CS, 164–65).
This week I thought it would be fun to make plan of salvation printables to go with this. Along with larger pictures that you could place on the board to illustrate the plan of salvation I did a matching sheet for their drawings.

Thanks. Hope you enjoy!
Megan, I came across your blog as I was planning my sharing time for Sunday. Your pictures are great and as I had no idea how I would draw the pictures I wanted, I am very grateful for your talent. Thank you!
