LESSON LIFESAVER Activity
Faithful Footsteps Game
TO MAKE print the Faithful Footsteps Game situations and obtain a spoon for every player. Cut up the situations and place them in a container.
TO PRESENT: Read about covenants and promises in Mosiah 5:2, 5, and Mosiah 18:7-17.3. Play the Faithful Footsteps Game.
How to Play:
1. Sit in a circle with a spoon for every player, taking away one spoon to start.
2. Have someone draw a situation and call it out. If the action is something faithful, everyone grabs a spoon. This gets tricky because you think it is a positive thing and go to grab the spoon, but it really isn’t a positive one, e.g., “I listen to the Holy Ghost, but sometimes I don’t obey His voice and feel sorrow.”
3. Keep playing until you find a winner. The winner is the one who grabs the last spoon. Play again and again until all situations are read. If you run out of situations before the game ends, refer to previously read situations again until the game ends.
AWARD POINTS FOR THE WINNER . . . counting up at the end.
THOUGHT TREAT: (Promise Pudding). Give each individual a small container of pudding. Thought: Talk about the promises we make at baptism to keep Heavenly Father’s commandments. With every bite, have youth name these commandments. Tell them that just as pudding is smooth, we too can become smooth (perfect) as we strive to live the teachings of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
