Lesson 149: Doctrine and Covenants 136:19–42 - Make a "Comfort Quilt" for the Mormon Pioneers as They Crossed the Plains.

During this lesson I had the students search through D&C 136:18-42 to find words of comfort that would help the pioneers journey across the plains.  I gave each student a paper Quilt block and then they took turns sharing the scripture that they found and why that scripture would bring comfort to the pioneers.  As they took turns I took their quilt block and placed it on the board to form a quilt for the journey.

I also gave the students this quote from President Monson to put into their journals.  I had them write about how they can be a modern day pioneer.

Who will lead the church after of the death of Joseph Smith? Handouts for Lesson 146: Succession in the Presidency

Here are my handouts for lesson 146.  I followed the lesson and had the students read about three of the people who could be possible candidates for the next president.  Here is the handout that I used from Lesson 146 of the Doctrine and Covenants Manual.

I also handed out this quote for the students to paste into their journals.

The Mormon Trail - A Handout to go with Lesson 148: The Trek across Iowa; (and Mormon Battalion) Doctrine and Covenants 136:1–18

I like for my students to have a handout to go with some of my lessons.  I especially wanted them all to be able to look at a map and see the areas that the Saints took refuge.  So I made this handout to use with my lesson.  Most of the information came from this lesson https://www.lds.org/manual/doctrine-and-covenants-and-church-history-seminary-teacher-manual-2014/section-7/lesson-148-the-trek-across-iowa-doctrine-and-covenants-136-1-18?lang=eng

Mormon Trail Handout

Then I had the students draw the Mormon Trail.

I printed out several paragraphs from the Church History Institute Manual and then had the students draw and write about the stops on the Mormon trail.

Joseph Smith's picture in Lego's Pirates of the Caribbean Game

I saw on Twitter that someone had found a picture of Joseph Smith in the Lego's Pirates of the Caribbean Game.  That was just too good to pass up.  Since we are studying the D&C in my seminary class I had to use it as an example of just how world wide the name Joseph Smith had become.  It has even passed into the realm of Lego Games.  I made this meme out of it to show my class:

The Nauvoo Temple - Fact Sheet Handout

Since we are studying Nauvoo and May 1st is the anniversary of the dedication of the Nauvoo Temple I decided to make a handout for my class about the temple.  All of the facts come directly from these two church websites:
