[child holds up picture of Jesus Christ] When I pray I can thank Heavenly Father for my blessings. Jesus Christ is my Savior. His Atonement is one of my greatest blessings.

I taught the children the subject “Jesus Christ is my Example” by using 2 object lessons. I first displayed 2 exact plants planted in 2 different containers.
