For Young Children

We Do Not Doubt

Church Magazines

The stripling soldiers had to do something hard, but they were not afraid. They knew God would help them. Read Alma 56:47–48 to find who taught them to trust in God’s help. Then connect the dots, and color the picture.

Helps for Parents

1. Summarize the story of the stripling soldiers as recorded in Alma 56.

2. Explain that the soldiers’ mothers had taught them that if they trusted Heavenly Father, He would help them.

3. Talk to your children about a situation that might scare them. Ask how they could show trust in the Lord. (Hint: What are the stripling soldier and his mother doing?)
