The Church of Jesus Christ

Friend November 2018 A simplified version of the song that is easy to play. Also, a sing-along video.

Ensign October 2020 “Family Study Fun: Act a Song”

Read 3 Nephi 27:8 together. Explain what each word in the name of the Church means: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

1. Sing “The Church of Jesus Christ”(Children’s Songbook,77).
2. Come up with actions for the different words in the song. For example, you could stand up when you sing the word “I,” touch your head when you sing “know,” and march in place for “follow.”
3. Practice using these different actions as you sing the song together.

Discussion: Why is the full name of the Church important? How can you politely help people understand the full name of the Church when they refer to us as “Mormons”?
