ACTIVITIES
Children have fun guessing whose name belongs to whom as they pretend to be like
some very special people in the Bible.
The children will identify discontentment or contentment in their own hearts.
This activity encourages children to reflect on those they think about the most and encourage these people to live for Christ.
BULLETIN BOARDS
Children see they can follow the light of the Lord by reading the Bible, praying, worshiping, and going to church.
