Week 37: Puppets Witness God's Love

Our class took on the task of selecting a Bible verse and turning it into a puppet skit to witness our faith to Preschool through 1st grade.  So for we have put on 6 performances and will visit a few more classes the next 2 weeks.  Students chose verses that talk about showing love, encouraging one another, forgiving, and sharing about Jesus.  Our younger schoolmates have been enthralled by the puppets and the fact that big kids did this just for them!
