Show and Tell
“When I am baptized, I make a covenant with God” was a special sharing time for the Primary children of the Witbank Branch, Pretoria South Africa Stake.
Primary children of the Sarasota Ward, Sarasota Florida Stake, earned blocks to build the Nauvoo Temple by coming to Primary, bringing their scriptures, and learning the Articles of Faith. They learned that families are forever!
My bishop shared an important scripture with me at my baptism interview, Mosiah 18:8–10. This helps me understand the covenants I made when I was baptized.

I am a builder and love to build things out of cardboard, so I built my own temple! I live in the Houston Texas Temple district. I hope to be married there one day.

When my family was flying on an airplane to a family reunion, I was scared. I was sitting by my aunt, and she suggested that I say a prayer. During my prayer I asked for comfort. I know that Heavenly Father helped me to feel better.

My dad and mom talk to us about the temple. They show us a picture of the temple and testify of its eternal blessings.

I have football training during the week. Once I was chatting and playing with some of my teammates. One of them started kicking a metal signpost, and soon each of the boys took turns kicking it. I knew it was not right to damage property, so I chose not to kick the sign. I felt good that I made the right choice.
