Sunday, March 2nd Jesus Calms the Storm: Matthew 8:23-27; Mark 4:35-41; Luke 8:22-25
TALK ABOUT IT- Who was on the boat in the storm?
- What did Jesus calm?
- What can Jesus do?
In The Boat
What You Need: Tape, blue crepe paper streamers, spray bottle, water, and paper towels
What You Do: Create a simple boat shape on the floor with tape. Tear streamers in varying lengths, two per person. Fill the spray bottle with water. Encourage the family to get into the boat with you. Bring the streamers, spray bottles, and paper towels into the boat. Ask the family to pretend to go on a boat ride with you. Give everyone two streamers and encourage them to wave them back and forth like the water. Spritz the water into the air, to represent the rain. Wave streamers faster for the storm.
What You Say: “That reminded me of our story today! Jesus told the storm to stop, and it did! Wow! Jesus can do anything!
