Bible Story: The Garden of Gethsemane
Bible Theme: Jesus prays.
Scripture: Mark 14:26-42
Weaving Faith Into Life: Through this passage, children will understand the purpose of prayer.
Are you being a FaithWeaver this week? Try this fun faith-growing activity with your child: read this week's Scripture, Mark 14:26-42, together and have the children create a prayer list. Encourage your child or children to take time each day to find a nice, quiet place in your home to lift up your list of prayer concerns before God.
