First Grade Devotional


The First grade is studying the Doctrine and Covenants/Church History this year. This was their devotional sharing what they have learned so far this year...It is always such a delight to see your child learn and grow and for that to include the basic core beliefs of the gospel of Jesus Christ...well...I couldn't ask for anything better!

My little pioneer...

And his class....

His part: Seven year old Alma Smith lived in Haun's Mill Missouri. One day a mob came and killed many of the church members who lived there. Alma was shot in the hip blowing the bone away. There were no doctors to take him to. Alma's mother prayed to know what to do.

It was such a wonderful program! The spirit of those pioneers and early church members filled the room. These sweet young kids sharing such a strong message pulls on your heartstrings. Just one more thing I love about American Heritage school! You feel the spirit!!
