Show a picture of our prophet, President Gordon B. Hinckley.

Ask, "Who knows his name?"

We can show our respect when we address or talk about our prophet.

How should we address him? (President Hinckley.)
How do we address our bishop? (Bishop ____.)
Our teachers? (Brother or Sister ____.)

We can show our love and respect for Heavenly Father when we speak with Him through prayer.
When we pray, we can show reverence for Heavenly Father by using proper prayer language.
When Jesus was visiting the Nephites, He knelt and prayed to Heavenly Father. He showed His love and respect by addressing His Father with the proper prayer words.

Read together 3 Nephi 19:20–21: "Father, I thank thee that thou hast given the Holy Ghost unto these whom I have chosen" (v. 20; emphasis added).
We can follow Jesus's example by using words that show Heavenly Father that we love and reverence Him. We can use the words thee or thou instead of you, thy instead of your, and thine instead of yours or your.

To practice using prayer language, make simple signs with the words thine, thou, thy, and thee.

Sing each line of the song "Tell Me, Dear Lord" (p. 176), and let the children echo it back.
Assign each line to a group of children, and give them the corresponding sign.
Then have each group stand and sing their line.
Switch signs and sing again. Repeat, learn, and sing "I Thank Thee, Dear Father" (p. 7).

Encourage the children to show love and respect for Heavenly Father by using prayer language
