"We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost." ~ Joseph Smith

There are two lesson plans, as we like to spend two weeks on each Article of Faith.  The lessons are taught during our Sunday devotional each week.  Then on the week days we recite the Article of Faith being studied, as well as sing the corresponding song from the Children's Songbook (CS), as part of our daily morning devotional.  These lesson plans are geared for the ages of our children, ages 4 to 10, but could be adapted for older children.
