Song: Away in a Manger, CS #42
Scripture: Matthew 25:40, "Insasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me."
Watch this video: What Shall We Give?
Our Savior, Jesus Christ, gave us the greatest gift of all...the Atonement. What is the greatest gift we can give to him? The scripture found in Matthew 25:40 gives a great answer, serving others.
(activity: make your own manger with straw just like in this story)
Activity: Write the name of each member of your family on a slip of paper. Fold and place in a bowl. Let each family member pick out a name. Over the next week find ways to serve that person.
Find a way to give service this Christmas season. Here are a few simple ideas:
Buy items on a giving tree.
Donate food/time to a local food bank.
Shovel snow for neighbors.
Invite someone lonely over for dinner or FHE.
Deliver food/treat baskets to elderly/lonely.
