“For the Perfecting of the Saints”
Ephesians
September 30–October 13
Happy Monday!
Last week we celebrated both of my daughter's birthdays. There's just one day (plus 12 years) in between their big days. So we've had all the joy of celebrating a little girl turning 3, as well as a newly minted 15 year old. Seriously, so much fun!
I am so looking forward to General Conference this weekend and I'm making big plans for my study journal (what else is new!?). Can't wait to share those details with you.
In the meantime, I'm happy to be here with Come Follow Me Sketchnotes for this week!
Here's our family study plan for the week:
Monday: Read CFM Introduction + Read Ephesians 5:31,33 and United We Stand activity
Tuesday: Read Ephesians 2:4-10; 3:14-21 and discuss the love and mercy of God.
Wednesday: Read Ephesians 5:21-6:4. Discuss the ideas in Recipe for a Happy Family.
Thursday: Read Ephesians 6:10-18 and watch Put on the Whole Armor of God
Friday: Read Ephesians 2:12-19 and discuss.
Saturday: Read Ephesians 1:10 and watch Why Do We Have Prophets?
Sunday: Weekly Recap/Catch up on topics we missed during the week. Kids lead discussion.
Additional Study:
Put on the Whole Armor of God
Gathering the Family of God
How to use Scripture Sketchnotes:
TRACE. You can also trace these into your scriptures or journal using a light box or a sunny window. My husband made me an awesome lightbox, but this one is a great option for you to purchase.
COLORING PAGE. Use as a coloring page for your kids to work on during family scripture time. Write additional notes and insights on the pages as you go. You could add all the completed sketchnotes pages to a binder to keep as a reminder of the gospel topics you've discussed together.
STICKER PAPER. Print on clear sticker paper and cut apart the doodles to add to your scripture journal or into the margins of your scriptures. (This year, I am using this free wide-margin New Testament PDF that I had printed and spiral bound at a local copy shop. But there are many wide-margin options available.)

Printing on clear sticker paper allows you to add color to the doodles using colored pencils, but still be able to see the words beneath them. I have tried out a few different kinds of colored pencils on this sticker paper. Ergosoft pencils and Prismacolor pencils work really well.
