Jesus Loves Me sacrament mini-portrait
Nursery Lesson 27:
The Sacrament Helps Me Think about Jesus Christ
OBJECTIVE: Tell children that Jesus gave the sacrament to His Apostles before He died on the cross (Luke 22:19-20). He also brought the sacrament to the Nephites (3 Nephi 18:1-11). Today we partake of the sacrament of water and bread after a prayer is said so we can think of and remember Jesus and keep His commandments.
