How can you BE a light to the world? We have created a video for you to help teach your family be a light following Elder Stevenson’s General Conference talk called “Love, Share, Invite.” In the video you will also see a sneak peek into our BRAND NEW video series for Come Follow Me that will be coming in 2023. You can watch the full episode here.
Watch the video below for Family Home Evening night on November 28th and then get ready to Light the World with love and service.
Light the World December Advent Calendar
We have created a simple calendar for you to use to help you BE a light this Christmas! This was inspired by our most popular Light the World calendar we did years ago with a bit of a facelift. You can pick one service to do during December, daily, or weekly. You decide how to best Light the World. Be prayerful as help serve others this year.
We have also included a handout that you can give to your kids or primary children. It can be used as a bookmark as they study the life of Jesus Christ next year for Come Follow Me. It says, “‘I can be a light to the world.’ Be a ‘Smartie’ this Christmas. Love, Share, and Invite others to follow Jesus Christ.” Cut and attach a glowstick to the handout with a smartie candy to invite the children to light the world. Pass out the calendars with it.
To download the calendar and handouts, click the image below, then add your email address to join our community for free. The printable will automatically pop up after you subscribe.

Daily Scripture, Song, Activity, and Treat
The calendar above coordinates with our most popular Christmas Product our Advent of Christ that was featured in one of the first Light the World events. You can download the tags and make your own Advent Calendar with treats, scripture, video, and activity. There are two coordinating booklets: one for parents to help teach the mini lesson each day and a child’s workbook. You can pick them up in our shop below.
