The Plan of Salvation Sea Turtle

Every year in seminary, we teach the Plan of Salvation on one of the very first days. It is also called "The Plan of Happiness" This lesson covers the basic questions,
"Where did I come from?
Where am I going?
Why am I here?"

(Here is my very short explanation of the Plan of Happiness if you've never heard of it: We lived in the Pre-existence with our Heavenly Father, then we were born, then we die, then we go to the Spirit World, either to Paradise or to Spirit Prison. Later we get resurrected, which means our spirit and body get put back together in a permanent way. We are judged, and are sent to one of three different kingdoms, depending on our choices that we made on earth, whether good or evil.)

Here is a much better explanation on www.mormon.org if you want to check it out:

While we were talking about the three different kingdoms, my seminary students reminded me of a very easy way to remember the names of the kingdoms in order.

C
Ter
Tel

You say "Sea Turtle".

C
Ter
Tel

That stands for Celestial, Terrestrial, and Telestial. (Celestial is the best, Terrestrial is the middle, and Telestial is the lowest.)

Now you don't ever have to be confused as to which order they go in.
