Welcome to this gentle, symbolic bedtime story inspired by the truths in Doctrine & Covenants 135–136 and the Come Follow Me curriculum.

“The Sparrow Who Sang” is a whimsical, child‑friendly tale that teaches deep gospel principles through soft imagery and adventure.

In this story, children learn about the courage of Joseph and Hyrum Smith, whose testimonies were sealed with their blood, and how God’s great work continued even after their mortal missions ended. A comforting heavenly Messenger guides young Marin to understand that Jesus Christ still leads His people, just as He did when the early Saints journeyed west under divine direction, even after the loss of their dear prophet.

This bedtime story helps children feel peace, faith, hope, and the assurance that God guides us through every trial—and that every step taken with Him can become a sacred experience.

Perfect for Come Follow Me, family scripture study, and faith‑building bedtime routines.
