Sunday 7th June
Genesis 1:1-2:4 & Matthew 28:16-20 | The Trinity
Fun for everyone
Get your household into a group/s of three, work out some synchronised movements that you will do together (moving as one) to go from one side of a room to the other. You must move as a single unit and try to include as many different types of movements as possible.
Craft
Step One: You’ll need collage paper/feathers etc or felt tips to decorate. Blue tack, glass pebbles, bottle tops & card.
Step Two: Cut the card into a circle and draw or print out 3 equal parts onto the circle.
Step Three: Get children to think about what they have heard and know about the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. On each third of the circle use colours, shapes and symbols to draw or collage their thoughts/feelings/ideas about each person of the Trinity.
Step Four: Turn the spinner over and stick the flat side of a glass pebble to the middle of the circle.
Step Five: On the front of the spinner, blue tack a bottle top to the middle.
Step Six: Twist the bottle top to spin the spinner and see how the three parts blend into one!
Questions to talk through together
How is it possible for three separate living things to all be one?
What do you think/feel about God the Father?
What do you think/feel about God the Son?
What do you think/feel about God the Holy Spirit?
Are God the Father, God the Son & God the Holy Spirit equal?
A song for little ones
A short prayer
Dear God, Thank you for how amazing you are even if we don’t fully understand. Thank you for the Bible and how it shows God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit even though you are still one. Please help us learn about you and your love for everyone. Amen.
