For Children

JANUARY

At this time of year, we celebrate Epiphany – the time when the Wise Men or Kings visited JESUS.  Matthew tells us that when the star they were following stopped over the place where Jesus was, the visitors were OVERWHELMED WITH JOY.

What brings joy to your life?

Write down or draw –

• 5 things that made you SMILE this week
• 4 fun things you did this week
• 3 people who were kind to you this week
• 2 times you felt loved this week
• 1 wish you have for next week

When you finish, take some time to pray for everything you wrote or drew and thank God for the joy you have in your life.

 

Ever present God, you have always been and will always be with us. Help us take time to remember the things in our lives that bring us joy. Thank you for everything that makes us smile and gives up hope. Amen
