I play with my younger brothers and help them get dressed while my mom gets ready for church. I feel the Lord’s love for me when I help my family.

I sweep the floor and set the table before meals to help my mom. I help my classmates with their homework and help my teachers move books at school.

I was nervous to go to Primary after my family moved to a new country. I prayed so I would feel welcome. We learned at family scripture study how Jesus loved and served everyone. Little by little, I am choosing to become more like Jesus and am thankful for my new friends at Primary.

My mother turned on hymns for me to listen to. It made me feel good, and I felt like Jesus was near me.
