***NEW*** High Resolution Printing!!!
FINALLY!!! The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints has put together an individual and family teaching manual!
I'm trying to figure out the new "Come, Follow Me- New Testament 2019" manual, and I thought I would put my plan up here for anyone who wants to copy any of my ideas. And guess what- I have over ten years of family devotional teaching under my belt. I know what works (in my family.)
Simple. That's the main goal. Simple.
If it's not simple, you won't do it.
Also, VIDEOS. Videos are also my goal. The church has a million out there. In fact, the manual both online and physical suggest using them. I have all the video links you'll need.
I'll make this EASY & FREE for you: 1, 2, 3
1-Print out this Background on two 11x17s (more on this latter) and laminate it (clear packing tape works great) or get a poster-board.
2- Get TWO manuals. One the church will give you, and you can get a second from a distribution centre. If I can get it in the country of Vanuatu, you can get one where you live.
This first manual is for cutting out pictures.
Each week there is a beautiful 8x10 picture at the end of the section that goes along with the lesson. You are going to cut this out so you can put it on your board.
The second manual you have, you will be cutting out pictures from as well, but you can still read from it, so this will be your reading manual as well. A little bit of a hassle I know, but better to display the pictures for your family than hiding them away in a book. (Or you can print them from the online manual.)
***OR*** if you follow the instructions in this video, you can get BOTH images out of the SAME manual!!!
The picture you need is the image above the theme at the beginning of each lesson. You will have to crop off the side a bit to make it fit.
Stick those to the board, and it should now look like this:
3-Print out my awesome Theme, Daily Study, and Scripture page (11x17-more on printing latter,) cut it up and stick it on your board.
And VOILA! A devotional board both beautiful and useful.
How do you use this board? Simple!
At the beginning of each week, you just slap on the new pictures, and then read the first paragraph as a family as an introduction to the week. (Sunday would be awesome for this.)
The rest of the days, each individual can pick Daily Study Goals on your board. Read the corresponding paragraph and scriptures.
For Family Home Evening, read the last part of the lesson (I'm sure there will be dozens of blogs with "Come Follow Me" FHE plans. This is not one of them.)
*******As part of your Daily Study as a family, I suggest watching VIDEOS. We usually watch them while eating breakfast.*******
Just click on the week, and you will find the church's suggested videos!!

ReplyDeleteThis is great thanks.
ReplyDeleteThis is so great! Will you be doing every months?
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely. I already have the first six months *almost* ready to update. I will continue until the entire year is covered.
DeleteThank you so much. This will be a massive help for me. Again, THANK YOU!!
ReplyDeleteSo excited for this, thank you so much for sharing! Will you be doing this every month? Big huge THANK YOU!!!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely. I already have the first six months *almost* ready to update. I will continue until the entire year is covered.
DeleteWow maybe I can actually do this then!! Thank you!!!
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! your my new #1 blog to follow!
ReplyDeleteThank you! This looks amazing. I'm excited to get this up at my house. Love it!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I'm excited to use this with my family. Thank you for sharing. But, what am I doing wrong? I'm following your instructions to save the documents but I'm getting an error saying I don't have permission. I have a Mac, could that be the problem?
ReplyDeleteWith the new way of printing using my google drive, I'm hoping you won't have that problem. Try again.

ReplyDeletenot sure what the problem is. I'm certainly not a professional blogger. Maybe I'll can put them some where else on line or something. I'll look into this. I have a Mac too.
DeleteIf all else fails, on a Mac, you can go "command, shift, 4" and drag your mouse over the area you want to screen shot. You can print what you screen shoot.

DeleteI love your blog and I have created my board for my family. I am curious if you are the one that has an outline for day 1, 2 etc. I printed it out but can't fine where I printed it out from. I want to print them each week. Please let me know.
ReplyDeleteCould you upload a 16x20 to print? If I paste together 8x10s, some get cut off
ReplyDeleteI made an 18x24 for you!
DeleteThe background is 17x22 but is good enough quality you should be able to print that big.
ReplyDeleteWhen I uploaded it, it advised not printing it because of low resolution
DeleteIf you pm me I'll email it to you lindyhomeschool@gmail.com
DeleteHi, I l love this, thank you so much. I am also receiving the same message on walgreens.com that the image resolution is too low.
DeleteHopefully you will be able to take this into any photo centre now and get it printed with good resolution, thanks!
DeleteHi Lindy,
ReplyDeleteIs it possible to download the cute banner and
title "Come Follow Me?
If not no worries :)
my email is: sharylgolson@gmail.com
Done...but because of your suggestion, you can get it here as well!
DeleteI have a question. If I plan to print the weekly cutouts at 8.5x11, which size board should I print and prepare? Will cutouts print on 8.5x11 paper fit onto the 11x17 board? Thank you!
ReplyDeleteNo matter what size you do the board, after pasting it together, it will actually be the same size, so it doesn't matter. I was just trying to let people print the board in the easiest way possible.
DeleteYou can go to a photo store like Walmart to print the poster sizes, or you can go to a copy store like Staples to print the 11x17, or you might be able to print 11x17 at home, and you for sure could print 8.5x11 at home.
I meant the blue squares will remain the same size, which means everything will stick to it the same.
DeleteLove!!!! Thank you!!!!
ReplyDeleteDo you have a recommendation for sizing the images from,the CFM booklet to fit the 8.5 x11 format? I'm tech challenged. :/
you mean the online booklet? The physical booklets should automatically fit.
DeleteIf you are printing images from the online booklet, I will tell you how to do it on a Mac and hopefully it's the same for a PC.
1-right click on the image and select "open image in new tab"
2-click print from your browser.
3-in the print dialogue box, change it to portrait/landscape as needed
4-still in the print dialogue box, change the scale until the picture looks the size you want (compared to the 8.5x11 sheet of paper.) I had to make mine 140% for it to be the right size.
5-print!

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing this! I was going ahead and printing all the available downloads and one of the very last ones (jun 17 top for 8x10) doesn't have a link for the download. Obviously no rush, but thought you might like to know. ;)
ReplyDeleteHi, A3 please, I can print this and live in Belgium, we do not use the American system used as format for printing
ReplyDeleteDONE! the A3 links are there. Don't know why I didn't do that from the start!
DeleteThank you!! I don't know how I found your page, but I'm so glad I did. We have 4 little children and have been using your guide since day 1. Love it!!! So simple! Thank you Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteI love this so much! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for sharing this. I wish I found this earlier. I will be using this for our daily come follow me study as a family and will use this in my 8-11 class as well. Again, thank you so much. May you continue to share our talent with others. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing! I have been using this for my family and it has been wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThank You for this inspired idea. it has helped my family immensely!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for this inspired idea. It has helped my family immensely!!! We have been using it all year so far.
ReplyDeleteI love these so much, thank you!!! We have been using it all year. Have you been working on the rest of the year, or is it something you wont be continuing doing?
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for your creative efforts in helping me to have "Come follow Me" as a weekly visual reminder in my Home.
ReplyDeleteAny chance of the rest of the year being done soon?
Thank you so much for the continuing posters! This has been and is a wonderful resource for my family! You have been such a blessing to us!
ReplyDeleteHi, I have been loving using your printables. It has been a great tool for our come follow me. I just noticed that the printout link for June 24-30 doesn't match up with that weeks lesson. Just thought I would let you know in hopes that I can get the right one. Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteHey .. first, Thank you! I love your weekly cut outs and we use them every week. Second, the cut out for the week of June 24th is linked to July 29th. Just wanted to check in and see if you might be able to fix it so we can all get the correct one printed out. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteWe have really enjoyed using this for Come Follow Me. I was printing them out and wanted to let you know that for the last week of June the link is actually for the last week of July.
ReplyDeleteWhen will you have the next 6 months available? This has been a FABULOUS resource for my family! I am excited to continue using it.
ReplyDeleteWhen will you have everything updated for the second half of the year?
ReplyDeleteI just came across this resource and started using it with my family. Now I'm really hoping you will do it again for CFM 2020! Do you think you will be able to do printouts for 2020?
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping you might be doing this for the 2020 book of mormon curriculum. Pretty please!! it has been so great for my family to have this board to look at each week
ReplyDeleteI have been using this all year and love it! Thank you so much for doing this! Are you going to do the Book of Mormon version for next year?
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say thanks for doing this; I have loved having this on our wall all year long. Just curious if you will be doing this for 2020 as well.
ReplyDeleteWill you be doing prints for the Book Of Mormon? We love using your prints.
ReplyDeleteThank you for doing this. We've been using it all year. Will there be weekly cut outs for 2020?
ReplyDeleteWill you be sharing cut outs for the CFM bulletin board for 2020? I love this!
ReplyDeleteI have so enjoyed your COME FOLLOW ME!! as well as my family! I hope you are doing it again this year, my kids asked me today why the bulletin board is bare, as we began the new 2020 curriculum today! If i just havent found the right spot will u link me there, please!!
