Hello!
This week we are studying Abraham and Sarah.
Below is a teaching video, brought to you by Crossroads Community Church Kids Club!
Remind your kids that God made a promise to Abraham and God’s promises are good. God is always faithful and wants us to be faithful as well.
God promised that a great nation would come from Abraham. He promised that Abraham’s name would be great among the Earth, and that all people would be blessed through him. God always keeps His promises. God wants us to keep our promises too.
Ask your Kids…
What kind of promises can you make that you can keep? Allow children to respond.
We can promise to be nice to our brother or sister, share with our friends or help our parents with something around the house. Encourage your kids to think of a promise they can make. Let them know, that keeping a promise is very hard, and they will need God’s power to follow through. We can stop and talk to God anytime, and He will help us!
Give them a piece of paper and ask them to draw a picture of the promise they have made.
Write I promise to …….. on the top of the page.
Hang the picture somewhere your child will see it daily, and explain that you want them to look at the promise each day, and remember to ask God to help them KEEP their promise:) Tell them, “God keeps His promises, and he wants you to keep your promise too.”

THE TITLE TO PRINT.
BELOW is a fun craft project using STARS!
5 Point 3 Dimensional Star Wreath
I used 2 plates to draw wreath base on a piece of cardboard 
If you fold the cardboard in half, it’s easier to cut the inside circle 
2 Achieve the 3 dimensional look, create a score line from each point, using a ruler & a bone folder or substitute bone folder *see below 
Use your fingers to pinch the creases 
It will hold best if you use a glue gun, but a tape runner will work too, if strategically placed:) 
Use any ribbon or string you have on hand to hang 
Finish the end with a bow to hang
Below is another fun Star Craft that takes you and your kids outdoors!
Today’s Doodle Devotion, is just a “slice” of Abraham’s story! I pray that as you create opportunities to teach your children about God’s faithfulness, they will learn that He is trustworthy. The Story of Abraham can help them understand that good things take time, but if we know our God is faithful to His Word, we can trust that the wait is always worth it!
Bless you!
