• There are two special words I want to share with you.
• These special words can be used by everyone, but they are not used often enough.
• I’ll whisper these words to the first and the last can say them out loud.
When do we say “Thank You”?
We all like others to do kind things for us, but sometimes we forget to thank
them.
Let’s review the story of the 10 Leapers that we heard last week.

• Why did the one man come back to
Jesus?
What did the other men do?
• Remember that Jesus Christ healed all ten lepers, but only one remembered to thank him.
• Jesus must have been happy that one person remembered, but sad that the others did not.
• What should we thank Heavenly Father and Jesus
Christ for?
• Whom else should we thank?
• Whom else should we thank?
Our families, teachers, friends, anyone who does
something kind for us.
Let’s Listen to the following story about Carlos.
Carlos enjoyed camping and fishing and liked to spend almost every Saturday
fishing on the nearby river. But then his father died and many things changed for Carlos. He no longer had anyone to take
him fishing.
Carlos felt sad and lonely. His Primary teacher, Brother Taylor, noticed how sad he was and wanted to make him happy.
Brother Taylor invited Carlos to go fishing.
Carlos was very happy to go fishing again. He was ready and waiting when Brother
Taylor came to get him. Carlos and Brother Taylor had a wonderful day at the
river. They caught several fish, and that night they ate the fish for dinner with
Carlos’s mother and brothers and sisters.
• Carlos wanted to thank Brother Taylor for taking him fishing.
• What could Carlos do to thank Brother Taylor?
• Let’s go on to see what Carlos decided to do to thank his brother.
Carlos decided that to thank Brother Taylor, he would do something nice for him. Carlos helped his mother make a cake, and the next day he took the cake over to Brother Taylor’s home. Carlos gave Brother Taylor the cake and said, “Thank you for taking me fishing.”
How do you think Brother Taylor felt
when Carlos brought him the cake?
• How do you think Carlos felt?
Let’s read
Doctrine and Covenants 78:19
Let’s read
Doctrine and Covenants 78:19
19 And he who receiveth all things with thankfulness shall be made
glorious; and the things of this earth shall be added unto him, even an
hundred fold, yea, more.
How do you feel when you say “thank you” to
someone?
• How do you feel when someone
says “thank you” to you?
Does anyone remember a time when someone thanked you for
something you did that you would like to share with us?
Let’s Listen to the following story
about Sister Wells
Sister Wells was a Primary teacher. She enjoyed teaching and loved the children
in her class. She tried to have a good lesson prepared every Sunday. She loved Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ, and she
told the children of her testimony and how much Jesus loved each of them. She showed love and attention to the children
in her class. She always remembered their birthdays and other special
occasions.
One Sunday after church, someone knocked at Sister Wells’s door. It was
Rebecca, one of the girls from her class. Rebecca gave Sister Wells something in a
pretty pink envelope.
• Can you guess what was in the envelope?
What Sister Wells had in that pretty pink envelope was called a “Thank-you” note.
It was something like this . . .
How do you think Sister Wells felt when
she read this note?
How did Rebecca say “thank you” to her
teacher?
• What are some other ways we can
express thanks?
• Who does kind things for you?
• Let’s list them on the board.
• What can you do to thank each person for.
Let’s make some thank-you notes for someone that you want to thank.
I want to thank you for . . .
I want to thank you for . . .
TESTIMONY
• I am grateful to have each one of you in this class today.
