What are they used for?

Where do we live on this map?

Here s some other fun facts.

On this map is an area often called the Holy Land.

This is where it is.

This is where Jesus Christ grew up, taught people the gospel, and organized his church.

In Primary this year you have learned many things about Jesus and his teachings to the people in the Holy Land.

This book of scripture contains stories about Jesus Christ and the people of the Holy Land.

We can read in the New Testament about how Jesus organized his church in the Holy Land.

Today we are going to discuss some parts of Jesus Christ s church as he organized it in the Holy Land when he was on the earth. Jesus organized his church the same way among the Nephites in America when he visited them after his crucifixion.

What does this picture show?

What are some of the teachings of Jesus that you remember?

Jesus loved the people he taught and wanted them to know the gospel, the things Heavenly Father wanted them to do. One reason Jesus organized his church was to help the people learn the gospel. Organize means to gather together in an orderly way.

Why did Jesus want the people to have the gospel?

What do you know about the picture?

Jesus set the example of how we should be baptized.

Baptism by immersion by someone who holds the priesthood is an important part of Jesus church.

Jesus Christ chose twelve men to help lead his church.

Jesus gave them the priesthood to help them lead his church and serve people.

What do you know about what is happening in this picture?

Remember, Jesus Christ gave the people the sacrament to help them remember him.

Jesus wanted everyone to know that the true church was the Church of Jesus Christ.

Let s stand and sing the first verse of Tell Me the Stories of Jesus

1. Tell me the stories of Jesus I love to hear, Things I would ask him to tell me if he were here. Scenes by the wayside, tales of the sea, Stories of Jesus, tell them to me. Words: W. H. Parker, 1845-1929 Music: Frederic A. Challinor, 1866-1952

Apostles led the Church after Christ died.

After the Apostles died, however, the people began to forget Jesus and the Apostles. They did not obey the commandments or follow Jesus teachings anymore.

Soon the Church of Jesus Christ was no longer on the earth. Hundreds of years went by and there were many different churches, but none of them had the true priesthood.

Heavenly Father and Jesus still loved all the people on the earth.

Heavenly Father and Jesus still loved all the people on the earth. They wanted the Church of Jesus Christ to be on the earth again so people could learn the gospel.

In 1820 Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ appeared to Joseph Smith, who was living in New York, in the United States.

What do you know about this picture?

Jesus commanded Joseph Smith to organize the Church of Jesus Christ, just as Jesus himself had organized it when he was on the earth.

Just as the New Testament contains the teachings of Jesus when he was on the earth, the Doctrine and Covenants contains teachings Jesus has given to Joseph Smith and other prophets of our day.

What s happening in this picture?

The child is being baptized by immersion (being completely covered by water) by someone who holds the priesthood, just as Jesus was baptized.

It was Peter, James, and who restored the Melchizedek Priesthood.

Peter, James, and John were three of the original Apostles who were given the priesthood by Jesus Christ.

Jesus had Peter, James, and John return to the earth and give the priesthood to Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery.

Jesus knew that we would need the priesthood just as the original members of his church needed it.

What is happening in this picture?

Why do we take the sacrament?

Jesus Christ has given us the sacrament for the same reason he gave it to the Apostles in the Holy Land: to help us remember him.

We are members of Jesus Christ s church, just as his followers in the Holy Land were.

What is the name of Jesus Christ s church today?

Lets read Doctrine and Covenants 115:4 4 For thus shall my church be called in the last days, even The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Let s all Say this together. I belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

Jesus church is the same today as it was in the Holy Land.

Jesus has given his teachings to us just as he gave them to the people in the Holy Land.

This is where most of the chuch members liven when Jesus was on the earth.

Where do the members of Jesus Christ s Church live today?

Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints live all over the world.

The children in this picture come from many different countries.

Jesus wants all people, not just the people in one or two countries, to learn his teachings and belong to his church.

Let s stand and sing the The Church of Jesus Christ.

I belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I know who I am. I know God's plan. I'll follow him in faith. I believe in the Savior, Jesus Christ. I'll honor his name. I'll do what is right; I'll follow his light. His truth I will proclaim. Words and music: Janice Kapp Perry, b. 1938. (c) 1989 IRI
