Preparation: Gather pictures of a few different temples and a church building. Have a set of scriptures. Gather ten dimes and ten pennies and a dollar. Print the activity sheet to color. Print the talk from the Friend. *Optional- have tithing slip on hand to fill out for practice.
Objective: To teach about tithing, what it is and how it is used. Why we pay it.
Gathering Activity: Hold up the pictures of the temples and the church ask what they are, and how they came to be built and explain that they are built with our tithing money.
Lesson: Hold up the dollar explain that Heavenly Father does not ask for all of our money, he only asks for part of it- 10%. Demonstrate how 10 dimes equal one dollar and how ten pennies equal one dime. Show that one dime is all that Heavenly Father asks for or one penny out of 10. Remind that this money is used to help the church all around the world.
Read: Special Witness: Tithing from the Friend.
Conclusion: Bear testimony about tithing and what it is used for.
