We sure have enjoyed the "Testimony Gloves" in our Mission! We gave the gloves to each of our missionaries at our recent Zone Conferences, and they always bring "Sonrisas" (Smiles) to the faces of the missionaries when we all put the gloves on our hands and review the telling of our testimonies with them.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Testimony Gloves are a simple but effective tool to help children understand and express their own testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. As Parents, Primary Leaders and teachers, it is our responsibility to instill in the hearts of children a desire to believe in these five essential elements of a testimony. This belief can grow into a knowledge that it is true.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A Pure Testimony Is...

1. I know that God is our Father in Heaven and He loves us.
2. I know that Jesus Christ is His Son, our Savior and Redeemer.
3. I know Joseph Smith is a prophet of God, and he was the instrument through which the gospel of Jesus Christ was restored to the earth. He translated the Book of Mormon by the gift and power of God.
4. I know the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the Lord’s church on the earth today.
5. I know this Church is led by a living prophet who receives revelation.
