  • ‭Jeremiah 33:3

    "Ask me and I will tell you remarkable secrets you do not know about things to come."


    • Talking To God

      Talking to God is just like talking to a friend.  He wants to hear from you every day! Jeremiah 33:3 reminds us that when we call out to God, He promises to answer us. Isn’t that amazing?

      How to Pray:

          1.    Start with Praise: Begin by telling God how awesome He is. You can thank Him for the beautiful world He created, for your family, and for all the good things in your life.
          2.    Say Sorry: If you’ve done something wrong, it’s important to tell God you’re sorry. He loves to forgive and help us do better next time.
          3.    Ask for Help: God wants to help you with everything! Whether you’re worried about school, need help being kind to others, or want to feel better when you’re sad, just ask Him.
          4.    Pray for Others: Think about your friends, family, and even people you don’t know. Ask God to take care of them, too.
          5.    Thank God: End your prayer by thanking God for listening and for always being there for you.

      Remember, God is always ready to listen. You can talk to Him anytime and anywhere. Just like Jeremiah 33:3 says, when you call to Him, He will answer and share amazing things with you. So, don’t hesitate – start praying today and see how God works in your life!

  • The Prayer Tree

    Let’s learn about prayer and make it a regular part of our day. The Prayer Tree is a great way to help us to remember to pray. It also helps us see how God is working in our lives and encourages us to pray regularly with faith.

    Materials:
    • A sheet of poster board
    • Brown and green construction paper
    • Scissors
    • Glue or tape
    • Markers or crayons
    • Small sticky notes (doesn't matter the color)
    • String (optional)

    Instructions:
    1. Create the Tree Trunk and Branches:
    • Cut out a large tree trunk and branches from the brown construction paper.
    • Glue or tape the trunk and branches onto the construction paper or poster board.
    2. Create the Tree Top:
    • Cut out large leaves from the green construction paper
    • Glue or tape the leaves to the tree branches.
    3. Write “Prayer Tree”:
    • At the top of the poster, write “Prayer Tree” in big, colorful letters.
    4. Make Prayer Leaves:
    • Cut out small leaves from sticky notes.
    • Write different categories or prompts on some of the leaves, such as “Thank God for…”, “Pray for my family”, “Pray for friends”, “Ask God for help with…”, “Pray for the world”, etc.
    5. Decorate the Tree:
    • Decorate the tree with markers or crayons to make it look vibrant and inviting.
    6. Add the Prayer Leaves:
    • Write your own prayers on the paper leaves or sticky notes.
    • Attach the leaves to the tree, use tape if you need it.

    Using the Prayer Tree:

    Daily Prayer Time:
    • Each day, take a leaf from the tree and use it to help you pray. Remember, praying is just talking to God. It can be out loud or to yourself..
    • When the tree needs more leaves, add new ones with prayers or things to be thankful for.

    Family Prayer Time: (Optional)
    • Have a family prayer time where each member picks a leaf from the tree and prays about the topic written on it.
    • Share prayer requests and praises with each other
    • You can write down their prayers and requests and see how God is answering them. Periodically, review the leaves on the tree and have a special time of thanksgiving to thank God for answered prayers and blessings.

    Prayer:
    Dear God, thank You for hearing our prayers. Help us to remember to talk to You every day and to trust that You are always listening. Thank You for all the ways You answer our prayers and for being with us in every situation. Amen.

    BONUS Reflection:
    After using the Prayer Tree for a while, talk about the experience:
    • How does it feel to pray regularly?
    • Have we seen any prayers answered?
    • How has our relationship with God grown through prayer?

 

  • Your Talents

    Stewardship is based on the truth that all we have and all we are comes from God. We have the chance to thank God for the blessings He gives us. By giving back a portion of our time, talent, and treasure, we are able to show God gratitude for all He has done and continues to do in our lives.

    God has given each of us special talents. We can show our love for Him by using our talents to help others. Think of a way to use your talents to help someone in your family.
