Lesson: Read this brief history of St. Patrick. Point out that St. Patrick's life was a hard one but because he never stopped having faith he was able to be guided to do wonderful things. Talk about his using the shamrock as a lesson on the Godhead. Repeat together the first article of faith. Talk about how the shamrock has three separate leaves but are joined together on the same stem. discuss why Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost are different/separate and how they are similar or considered "as one". Here are some articles with ideas or answers to these questions that you can read before you give the lesson:
You can write these down on a big cutout or drawing of a shamrock. Write the differences on the leaves and the unifying elements on the stem.

You have saved me! I've been so exhausted today and I just sat down at the computer to plan FHE when I saw your blog post. I hope you don't mind if I link your post at my blog? I usually post about what I do for FHE.
Jeanette,
I don't mind at all. That is part of the reason why I post these =)
What a FABULOUS lesson idea. THANK YOU (from my whole family!!) for the great FHE!
Oh that is such a cute idea with the clover! Sooo good
Such a cute idea! Too bad we already had FHE. Maybe I'll store it away for next year.
Well my lesson for next year's March 17th is all done ... thanks :) !!
Hope you had a great St. Patty's Day yesterday.
Heidi :)
I love it!
Great idea! I wish I had seen it yesterday!
Thanks for this post! I have been wanting to do a St Patrick's Day themed lesson on the Godhead and most posts are about rainbows and pots of gold, which isn't bad, I just want my kids to always remember the real reason behind St Patrick's day. Thanks!
