Nehemiah Rebuilds the Wall

Still loving the Sunday School Lady!  I sometimes think MY job is big, but rebuilding the walls like Nehemiah, in a day and age with no skid-loaders, no cranes, now THAT'S a big job!

Josiah Discovers God's Word

As I get ready to head back to my "real job" of teaching 2nd grade, how perfect that the story for Children's Church is of Josiah, an 8 year old king!  So hard to imagine my little students being crowned as the king, but oh the faith of Josiah!

Craft Ideas
Make a Bible Scroll Craft - Cut a brown paper bag into a long rectangle.  Scrunch the paper up.  Smooth it out (using a rolling pin is fun).  Continue to scrunch and smooth the paper several times until wrinkles cover much of the paper. For the final time, smooth the paper out and paint with brown watercolor.  Let dry.  Curl the ends of the paper around a pencil and tightly roll to create the scroll effect.  If the rectangle is cut extremely long, you may also wrap and glue the paper around paper towel rolls. Write a verse or thought on the scroll to match the Bible story.
