November 11 – The Promise: Abraham Leaves Home
Big Idea: Abraham trusted God to guide him and to bless him.
Story Scripture: Genesis 11:27-12:9
Bible Verse: “God told Abraham to leave home and go to a new place.” Genesis 12:1
At Home Ideas:
Table Tent
You need: a table and a sheet
Spread the sheet over a table to form a tent. Have your child pretend to be Abraham and all the people who went with him. Have them remove the sheet, fold it, and take it to another table and set up again.
Altar Snack
Serve broken graham cracker pieces. Have your child stack them up into an altar. Remind them that Abraham made an altar to thank God for his new home.
