I have recently been called as a Relief Society teacher for the 4th Sunday of the month! I've found lots of help from others' blogs when discussing Relief Society Lessons, however it's be a little far and few between when searching for MY lessons - since they are all from General Conference. So I decided maybe I could help someone else in preparing for their lesson by posting mine on here!
Thanks Be to God - By Elder Russel M. Nelson
I started my lesson by greeting each sister at the door and handing them a copy of the talk from the Ensign with either a "physical, spiritual, or gospel" slip of paper. I just printed out the copy below and cut each word out and attached it to their copy of the talk. This was to divide the class into 3 groups.
When it was time to start my lesson I announced that they were all put into 3 groups and that I would like those groups to assemble. Once in their group I gave a brief lesson about......
"How much better it would be if all could be more aware of God’s providence and love and express that gratitude to Him".
We continued as I assigned each group to:
1) Define what a "physical gift" is.
2) Share a scripture with an example of a "physical gift".
3) What "physical gift" are you thankful for?
I printed out these free printables from Whisker Graphics for each person to write down what "gift" they were thankful for.

I think overall the lesson went really well. Let me know if you came across this and it was of any help to you!
Thanks!
