WEEK 4 - Jesus Notices a Widow’s Giving

THEME - Even small gifts matter

PROPS - Toy coins, water dropper or spray bottle

Say: JESUS SAW A WOMAN GIVE TWO SMALL COINS AT THE TEMPLE. IT DIDN’T LOOK LIKE MUCH, BUT JESUS SAID SHE GAVE MORE THAN ANYONE ELSE.

JESUS SAW HER HEART. EVEN A LITTLE GIFT CAN BE BIG TO GOD, JUST LIKE A LITTLE DROP OF WATER CAN MAKE RIPPLES! (Use the dropper to drop water into a bowl or into the bathtub, or mist the air lightly.)

LET’S LISTEN... DRIP, DRIP, DRIP. (Let children take turns with the dropper.) CAN YOU HOLD UP YOUR FINGER LIKE A DROP? SAY, “JESUS SEES ME!”

JESUS NOTICES EVERYTHING WE DO IN LOVE. EVEN THE SMALL THINGS MATTER.

Repeat phrase: “JESUS SEES ME!” (Smile and repeat as you drip water gently.)
