Children in Tasmania, Australia, had a Primary activity to paint pictures of Jesus Christ. They enjoyed it so much that they had another activity to paint God’s creations.

I am excited to go to the temple one day. I know I will feel close to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ when I am there.

I wrote about my baptism in my journal. I have many great memories from that day. The water felt cold, but my heart felt warm, happy, and joyful!

I learned that when I’m scared or have questions, I should pray. I am grateful Heavenly Father listens to and answers my prayers.

Our dog, Ellie, got really sick and died unexpectedly. We missed the light and joy she brought to our family. Many ward members comforted us with notes, hugs, and even stuffed animals that looked like Ellie! The next day we went to a temple open house and felt peace while our family was mourning.
