Your April 2025 General Conference Activity Packet

I've had talk opening jokes bomb. I've felt the same way as this poor guy does.

General Conference is nearly upon us. Which means it is time to print off your General Conference Activity Packet! I realize there are dozens of packets available for you to choose from, but there is only one packet that is endorsed by the Ward Cartoonist! (That should count for something, right?)

Download your copy in either English, Spanish (thanks to Gaby Herrera for the translation), or Portuguese (thanks to Dani Queiroz de Souza for the translation).

Thief in the Night

At least he's reading his scriptures. 

Hey, Cedar Fort is running a crazy deal from now until the end of the day tomorrow (February 28, 2025) where they are selling everything on their website for 75% off (just enter the code FEB75 at checkout). That means you can purchase Scripture Power, Super Sunday Activity Book, the Doctrine and Covenants, the Old Testament, the New Testament, and the Book of Mormon Come, Follow Me Activity books for a fraction of their regular price (1/4 to be exact). Jump on this incredible deal!

The Doctrine and Covenant Come, Follow Me Activity Book

Missionaries make their own luck!

I've very excited to announce the publication of my latest book: The Doctrine and Covenants Come, Follow Me Activity Book. For the past four years, I've published a book every year mirroring the Come, Follow Me curriculum. I saved the hardest for last (seriously, there aren't many scripture stories found in the Doctrine and Covenants). For that reason, of all my Come, Follow Me Activity Books, I might be the proudest of this one! You might want to buy a copy just to see how I did it.

You can purchase the book at Latter-day Saint bookstores or cedarfort.com. I'd recommend checking cedarfort.com over the next couple of days as they usually have some pretty sweet Black Friday sales this time of year.

And then there are the apps (iOS only, sorry!). Your kids will love LDS Scripture Heroes or Book of Mormon Adventure on the Apple App Store.

Your April 2024 General Conference Activity Packet

Believe me, care packages are a really, really big deal to missionaries.

Talking Weather

I felt the same way as Elder Van Dyke concerning weather as a missionary.

Right now Cedar Fort is having an incredible Black Friday sale on their website. You can purchase my new Book of Mormon Come, Follow Me Activity Book for just $6.80, the Old Testament Come, Follow Me Activity Book for just $5.60, and the Scripture Power Activity Book for just $4.90. What's more, enter the code BFCM25 and your entire order is 25% off. These deals won't last. If I were you, I'd order today (and multiple copies of each book).

The Book of Mormon Come, Follow Me Activity Book

First off, here's your missionary comic strip for the week.

Now that that has been taken care of, I'm very excited to share with you the details of my latest publication: The Book of Mormon Come, Follow Me Activity Book. If you've been paying attention, this shouldn't come as a shock after I've published an Old and New Testament version the past two years (any guesses what next year's book might be?)

Surprise or not, I do hope you'll check this out. I think this might be the best activity page I've ever put together (and I've done a lot!). It is certainly flows from my favorite set of scriptures. You can purchase the book online through Amazon or Cedar Fort or in Latter-day Saint bookstores everywhere.

Your October 2022 General Conference Activity Packet

I served my mission in the future basketball hotbed of Slovenia. There were signs even then that this tiny, little country might someday produce one of the world's best basketball players. Losing to chain-smoking Slovenes in pickup basketball games was not an uncommon experience.
