THE HOLY GHOST IS A SPECIAL GIFT
After you are baptized today, you will be confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and will receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost is a very special gift. There are different things that can remind you of the things that the Holy Ghost can do for you.
A MOUTH can remind you that the Holy Ghost speaks in a still small voice.
An EAR can remind you to listen to the Holy Ghost because he will guide you and help you to choose the right.
The Holy Ghost is like a WARM BLANKET because he can comfort you. The Holy Ghost is sometimes called the comforter. He can bring you strength and comfort when you need to make hard decisions in your life or when you are sad or lonely.
The BOOK OF MORMON can remind you that the Holy Ghost always speaks the truth. When you study and pray about the Book of Mormon, Heavenly Father can let you know through the Holy Ghost that the Book of Mormon is true.
A BOOK can remind you that the Holy Ghost is a teacher. The Holy Ghost can help you understand the scriptures and the teachings of our Prophets and Leaders. It can also help you learn at church, school and home.
The Holy Ghost will light your way like a CANDLE and help you walk along the righteous path that leads back to our Heavenly Father.
The HEART can remind you that sometimes you won’t hear the Holy Ghost, but you will feel a warm feeling in your heart. The heart can also remind you that because Heavenly Father and Jesus love you, they have given you the very special gift of the Holy Ghost to help you to return to live with them someday.
It is my prayer that you will try your best to be worthy to have the Holy Ghost with you all the time and that you will listen to the HOLY GHOST.

I was asked to give the talk on the Holy Ghost at our Stake Primary Baptism this afternoon. I found this on the internet and thought it was cute. My mom gave me the idea of putting the pictures in a pot.
Talk from www.strongarmor.blogspot.com
That is a great idea. My kids are still a few years away from being baptized but I love to get an early start.
Those pictures on sticks turned out really well. What a good idea!
The speech-language pathologist in me loves the visual supports! Great talk!
Visual images help ideas stick in children's minds. Great idea! One Stake Primary Baptism, someone made up a little white box filled with different but similar items for each child to take home with them (there were only a few children). A white washcloth (for comforter), a little flashlight, paper heart cut out, etc. I imagine, Tamara, that the children really enjoyed, listened and felt the spirit during your talk.
