Children’s Ministry Christmas Drama

Children’s Ministry Christmas Drama

By Gwen Gilmore

Thought about how I could do something different that the adults could minister to the children and then also involve the children. I feel like the Lord is leading me in the following:

(Stage is dark and the narrator reads the following)
In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. And everyone went to their own town to register.
So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. 5 He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.

(lights begin to fade in) » I want to read more! »

Scripture Verse on a balloon

Scripture Verse on a balloon

By Barbie

This helps children remember there verse for the week. Put one word (or 2 if small words) on each balloon after it is blown up. Read it a couple times from the balloons and then have one volunteer pop a balloon. Try to say the verse with the word missing. Continue until all the balloons are popped and they can repeat the verse. Safety note: Use a lady’s pierced earring to pop balloons. It is not to sharp, but it will pop the balloon.

I believe verse memorization is very important for our kids.

How Many Clowns? Gospel Lesson

How Many Clowns? Gospel Lesson

By CMIV

Over a century ago, Sam Loyd designed one of the most popular and magical puzzles ever created-more than ten million copies were produced! This genuine puzzle masterpiece is called “Get Off the Earth” and features a posse of sword-wielding Chinese warriors. I was inspired to re-imagine Sam’s puzzle with an added gospel flavor and had been tinkering around with this for over a year. Then, one day, my daughter Christy suggested using clowns. Viola! Finally, my version called “How Many Clowns?” was created. This picture shows how I have adapted the puzzle into a simple tract or craft project for children which they can cut out and assemble. » I want to read more! »
