Story
Time

(Use
Picture
of
Helaman’s
warriors.
Consider
other
story
aids
like
a
Cave
Painting,
Shadow
Puppets,
Popsicle

stick
theater,
having
the
narrator
dress
as
an
Ancient
prophet
or
attendant
Indian
Chief
to
do
hand
gestures

narrated/interpreted
using
the
following
dialog.)

A
long
time
ago
there
was
a
tribe
of
people,
the
People
of
Ammon,
who
were
peaceful
and
righteous
they
had

promised
God
to
never
fight
again.
They
were
protected
by
the
Nephites.
There
was
a
great
battle
between

the
Nephites
and
the
Lamanites
and
the
people
of
Ammon
wanted
to
help.
The
Nephite
leaders
did
not
want

them
to
break
their
promise
to
God.
The
sons
of
the
people
of
Ammon
had
not
made
the
promise
and
wanted

to
fight
alongside
the
Nephites
to
protect
their
families
and
homes.
Over
two
thousand
young
men

volunteered
to
serve
with
Helaman
as
their
leader.
These
young
men
were
very
special.
They
were
valiant,

courageous,
and
strong.
They
were
honest,
trustworthy
and
kept
the
commandments.
These
young
men
had

never
fought
before,
but
they
were
obedient
and
had
great
faith
in
the
Lord.
Helaman’s
warriors
had
been

taught
to
have
faith
and
believe
that
God
would
protect
them.
They
fought
bravely
and
not
one
warrior
died.

You
are
modern
day
warriors,
valiant
and
strong.

Webelos
Leader:

You
may
never
have
to
fight
a
battle
like
Helaman's
warriors,
but
there
are
other
challenges
and
temptations

that
you
will
have
to
face.
Through
Cub
scouting
you
have
been
taught
the
skills
and
values
that
will
help
you

to
overcome
trials.
The
seven
rays
of
the
Arrow
of
Light
stand
for
the
values
that
you
have
learned
in
Cub

Scouts.
They
are…

1. Wisdom

2. Courage

3. Justice

4. Faith

5. Love

6. Hope

7. Self-‐control

Each
of
these
values
is
a
part
of
the
armor
that
protects
against
the
challenges
and
temptations
that
you
may

have
to
face.
(In
each
section,
have
an
Arrow
of
Light
recipient
don
the
armor
appropriate
to
the
section
the

speaker/leader/cub
scout/indian
brave
is
addressing.)

1. WISDOM:
Alma
37:35

“O,
remember,
my
son,
and
learn
wisdom
in
thy
youth;
yea,
learn
in
thy
youth
to
keep
the

commandments
of
God.”

(SWORD)

Wisdom
does
not
mean
that
you
are
smarter
than
others.
It
means
that
you
use
what
you
know
to

lead
a
better
life.

-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐

2. COURAGE:
Alma
53:20

“And
they
were
all
young
men,
and
they
were
exceedingly
valiant
for
courage,
and
also
for
strength
and

activity;
but
behold,
this
was
not
all—they
were
men
who
were
true
at
all
times
in
whatsoever
thing

they
were
entrusted.

(LOINS)

Courage
doesn't
mean
that
you
have
no
fear
of
danger.
It
means
that
you
can
face
danger
despite

your
fear.

3. JUSTICE:
Alma
41:3

“And
it
is
requisite
with
the
justice
of
God
that
men
should
be
judged
according
to
their
works;
and
if

their
works
were
good
in
this
life,
and
the
desires
of
their
hearts
were
good,
that
they
should
also,
at
the

last
day,
be
restored
unto
that
which
is
good.”

(FEET)

Justice
means
being
fair
with
others
as
you
play
and
work
with
them.

4. FAITH:
Ether
12:12

“For
if
there
be
no
faith
among
the
children
of
men
God
can
do
no
miracle
among
them;
wherefore,
he

showed
not
himself
until
after
their
faith.”

(SHIELD)

Faith
is
belief
in
god
and
things
you
cannot
see,
but
are
true.

-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐

5. LOVE:
Deuteronomy
30:
16

“In
that
I
command
thee
this
day
to
love
the
Lord
thy
God,
to
walk
in
his
ways,
and
to
keep
his

commandments
and
his
statutes
and
his
judgments,
that
thou
mayest
live
and
multiply:
and
the
Lord

thy
God
shall
bless
thee
in
the
land
whither
thou
goest
to
possess
it.”

(BREASTPLATE)

Many
kinds
of
love
are
important:
love
of
family,
fellow
humans,
god
and
our
country.

6. HOPE:
1
Thessalonians
5:8

“But
let
us,
who
are
of
the
day,
be
sober,
putting
on
the
breastplate
of
faith
and
love;
and
for
an
helmet,

the
hope
of
salvation.”

(HELM)

Hope
means
to
look
forward
to
good
things
you
believe
will
happen
and
work
hard
today
to
make

them
happen.

7. SELF-‐C0NTROL:
Alma
39:12

“And
now
the
Spirit
of
the
Lord
doth
say
unto
me:
Command
thy
children
to
do
good,
lest
they
lead
away

the
hearts
of
many
people
to
destruction;
therefore
I
command
you,
my
son,
in
the
fear
of
God,
that
ye

refrain
from
your
iniquities;”

We
have
given
you
all
the
pieces
of
armor,
but
you
have
to
put
it
on
and
use
it
correctly.
That
takes

self-‐control.
Self-‐
control
means
being
able
to
stop
when
you
have
had
enough
of
something,
such
as

eating,
playing,
or
even
working
too
much.

Narrator:

Before
the
stripling
warriors
left
with
Helaman,
they
were
taught
these
values
by
their
parents
and
leaders,

putting
on
their
"armor".
As
you
cross
from
Cub
scouts
to
Boy
scouts,
remember
the
values
and
lessons
that

you
have
learned,
putting
on
your
armor
as
you
live
by
these
virtues
and
prepare
yourself,
you
will
be
happy

and
be
able
to
face
any
challenge
before
you.

Congratulations.
