The Lord Gave Me a Temple

Just as Temples are sacred, our bodies are temples for our spirits and should be respected, protected and cared for.  The Lord Gave Me a Temple p. 153, teaches just that.

1st Verse:

• The ordinances that we do in temples are very sacred.  Temples protect what is done in the temple.  We keep the temples clean and treat them with respect.
• Our bodies are the "temple" of our spirits.  Our spirits lived with Heavenly Father before we were born.  When we came to earth, Heavenly Father provided a body for our spirits.
• We must keep our bodies clean, protect them and respect them.
• Sing the first phrase. Ask the children to sing it with you 2 or 3 times.
• Continue with each phrase singing it first for the children then have them join you and sing each phrase a few times before moving to the next phrase.
• Sing from the beginning before teaching the next phrase so the children "put the song together" as they are learning it.

If time permits, review one of the songs for the program.
