Advent 2018: Activity with Kids – Christmas Card Prayers
by KT | Dec 14, 2018 | Ministry |
- Find a spot to display Christmas cards from friends and family as they arrive. Spend time enjoying and reading the cards with the kids.
- Take the cards down in January when things aren’t so busy. Place them in a basket or napkin holder where you will see them daily, perhaps at the kitchen table.
- With the children, pick one card or letter each day and pray for the sender.
- Optional: Send a note, text, or email to your friends and let them know you and the kids prayed for them. Don’t let this step keep you from praying if you don’t have time to write a note!
- Ask God which people or situations He is laying on your heart. In addition to praying, is there a way to include the kids in providing help, lending a listening ear, or sharing the joy with your friends?
- Include the kids in thanking God for the people He has brought into your life!
