June sharing time

Week 1- The Holy Ghost is the third member of the Godhead-
Memorize the first article of faith;  "We believe in God the Eternal Father and in his son, Jesus Christ and in the Holy Ghost." Talk about how Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost are the three members in the Godhead.  The Holy Ghost is a spirit without a body of flesh and bones.  Read D&C 130:22 and talk about how the Holy Ghost is different than the Father and the Son.  Read D&C 8:2 and share examples of how the Holy Ghost speak to your mind & heart. Read John 14:6, 2 Nephi 32:5, Mosiah 5:2, Moroni 8:26, D&C 20:27 and talk about ways the Holy Ghost speaks to us.

Week 2- The Holy Ghost speaks in a still, small voice-
In a quiet voice say, "Everyone who can hear my voice, put your finger on your nose." Continue, designating other parts of the body until all children are listening to your quiet voice. Point out that even though you were speaking quietly when the children listened they could hear your voice and obeyed your instructions. Explain that the Holy Ghost speaks in a still small voice.  Blindfold a child and lead them to a different part of the room by using a soft voice.  Ask, "How is this like the way the Holy Ghost guides us? Show how the Holy Ghost can be likened to the Liahona by sharing the story of Nephi's broken bow (1 Nephi 16:18-23). Explain that just as the Liahona directed the people according to their faith and diligence the Holy Ghost will direct us according to our righteousness when we listen to his voice.

Week 3-The Holy Ghost can guide and protect us-
Share stories about how the Holy Ghost guides or protects us.  The stories can either be personal, from the scriptures, or church history.  Talk about different important decisions you make in your life and how the Holy Ghost can help you make these decisions.

Week 4- By the power of the Holy Ghost we may know the truth of all things-
Read Moroni 10:5 and testify that the Holy Ghost will help us learn the truth.  Talk about when you do the right things in life you will feel a peaceful feeling which is the Holy Ghost telling you that these things are true and right.  Share experiences of how the Holy Ghost helped them.
