Come, Follow Me 2023 schedule

Author: Spencer Charles aka Latterdayhelp| Monday, June 27th 11:00 O’clock News MST| No.105

The Come Follow Me for 2023 will be focusing on the Nee Testament. The new manuals for are now available digitally. The manuals can be found in the Gospel Library app and on ChurchofJesusChrist.org.

The Come Follow Me study in 2019 also focused on the New Testament however there is now a new manual that is different from the 2019 version. There have been some slight changes within them and the dates for some of the study has been changed. You can still use the 2019 version however the dates for the study will not align with the church’s study. 

Unfortunately non-digital versions will no longer be free and Ward and branch leaders can use their budget to order print copies for members who want them. Members are encouraged to use the digital versions of the manuals where possible.

Feeling the Spirit doesn’t have to be a big production to count. Everything counts!

My name is Beth and I’m a busy mom who wanted to make scripture study easier and more approachable for families. I know that small reminders of the Spirit can make a big impact.

Our cards are designed simply with a timeless style to fit into any home. They provide a simple way to make God’s words a constant in your home. Each set has helped thousands of families just like you make their scripture study easier and more approachable.

Meridian Publisher Scot Facer Proctor is now releasing his beautiful photography in the new, 2023, Come Follow Me New Testament wall calendar. With twelve stunning photographs, this calendar will immerse you in the ancient world and the people at the time of Jesus. Some of the photographs include actors who are costumed for the first century and were born and raised in Nazareth. You will love them as you love the scenes from the Sea of Galilee and Jerusalem. Let this calendar enhance your studies of the New Testament this year. Each Monday has the Come Follow Me reading assignment for the week and major holidays, both American and Jewish (as in the New Testament times). This is the forth year in a row Scot has released his best-selling calendars.

I started this blog right in time to start covering all of the New Testament Come, Follow Me Primary songs! However, I was released right after our Primary Program in October 2019.

So you’ll see a TON of resources for the New Testament year, but I hope to continue adding all the other ideas I stacked up for specific songs and from previous years as a primary music leader. 

Those singing time plans linked are gold! You can use them to help model your year moving forward, but also be sure to check out how I planned a year of singing time lessons up front in about an hour and also our singing time planning worksheet that’s incredibly helpful, too! 

Plus, see our Suggested Song List that gives no overlap of the songs across all 4 years of the Come, Follow Me rotation!
