I made this simple reading chart for a friend on our Seminary teacher’s Facebook group. It is perfect for reading the Book of Mormon as a family. Black and White.
Here is the 2014 scripture reading chart reading “I have read the scriptures every day in 2014”! Enjoy! With or without scripture image. Also available as a plain 2 per page version.
This file can be used to have students summarize For example: “Imagine you are Enos. What would you tweet about your experience with prayer.” or “Imagine you are one of the shepherds who saw angels at Christ’s birth.

This is a silhouett version of the Christus Statue with some alterations for ease of printing.
