The Beatitudes

The Beatitudes will be the focus in the following six weeks in our Bible Explorer's program. The Beatitudes are some of the things that Jesus shared with the people.  The word Beatitude means "blessings." The children will learn that God blesses those who follow Jesus' teachings and that Jesus' followers are gentle, kind and peaceful. In our Bible Explorer workshops we will act out the Beatitudes in Apostle's Playhouse.  We will play the Beatitudes bingo game in Antioch Arcade. In Praising Puppets we will learn how God wants us to act and how God takes care of us.  Fun will be had as a word poster is made of the attitudes and situations in which God blesses us in Creation Station.  In Holywood, we will see a video on Jesus presenting the Beatitudes and learn about a different kind of kingdom.  And we will learn some of the words in the Beatitudes and play the game Beautitude Bash in Good News.  We invite and encourage you to come with us each week as we rotate through our workshops and discover our Bible stories.
