FHE Lesson- My Brother Jesus Christ

Family Home Evening Lesson
My Brother Jesus Christ

Opening Song: “I’m Trying to Be Like Jesus” (Children’s Song Book # 78)

Opening Prayer: Daddy

Lesson: Mommy

Learning about Jesus:
Show this Picture of Jesus or use your favorite Jesus picture.
Ask: “Who is this?”
“What do you know about Jesus?”
“Is Jesus related to us?”
Jesus is our Elder Brother. Jesus lives with our Father in Heaven. He listens to our prayers and helps us when we need him. He came to earth and died for us so that we can live with our Father in Heaven again. Jesus loves us very much and wants us to obey. But, if we make mistakes he has made it possible for us to repent and for our sins to be washed away.

Sing: “’Give’ Said the Little Stream” (Children’s Song Book # 236)

Activity:
Color the picture of Jesus and talk about him and what he brings to your family.

Closing Song: “I Feel My Savior’s Love” (Children’s Song Book # 74)

Closing Prayer: Mommy

2 medium ripe bananas, mashed (about 3/4 cup)
1/3 cup milk

Preheat your oven to 350°F.

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar till they're smooth. Beat in the egg, flavoring, banana and milk.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients, then gently stir them into the butter mixture. Spoon the batter into 18 regular-sized lightly greased muffin cups.

Bake the muffins for 20 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of one comes out clean. Remove them from the oven, and after 10 minutes turn them out of the pan to cool.

Yield: 18 muffins.
