Younger Children and Early Elementary
Day 8
ACTIVITY: Make a present for God. Given what you have right now, make something to give God. What did you make? Why did you choose that?
READ: The present: The story of Abraham and Isaac, from Genesis 22, p. 62-69.
DISCUSS: We don’t give animal sacrifices anymore, but what can we give God? How can we give ourselves to God?
ORNAMENT IDEAS: a bundle of sticks, a Ram (toy, stuffed animal, picture, or drawing), the present you made for God in the activity, a small wrapped gift box.
This ornament reminds us that God wants to rescue us.
