For Primary Workers

Feb. 6-12 Spotlight:
I'm posting this to be helpful to my Sugardoodle friends who are primary workers, (children at church) like me.  Here's the scripture spotlight for this week to review the reading assignment.

 From Ist Nephi 15 and 16 (22 selected verses; see other post)

Nephi's brothers couldn't understand the dream of the tree.  Nephi asked his brothers whether they had asked the Lord what it meant.  The brothers said that the Lord would not tell them.  Nephi said that if they would ask in faith and keep the commandments, the Lord would tell them, too.

Then Nephi answered their questions.  Next were five wilderness weddings (!) between the sons of Lehi (Ask children to name them: Laman, Lemuel, Sam, Nephi) and Zoram (ask them to remind us he was: Laban's servant who they met in Jerusalem when they got the brass plates from Laban), to the daughters of Ishmael.

Next, Lehi found the Liahona  outside his tent. (Ask the children to describe: It was made of fine brass, was of curious workmanship, was round, and had two spindles; one pointed the way they should travel through the wilderness. It was powered by faith.) Next, Nephi broke his steel bow and they were all hungry/sad. Even Lehi murmured. (Explain the word murmured.) Nephi corrected his brothers, but not his father. (Explain: respect.) Nephi made a wood bow, gathered stones, asked his father where to go to find food (animals to hunt). The Lord wrote on the Liahona and He spoke to Lehi. (He answered Nephi's question:  Food would be found up on mountaintop).
