This “Kids Care Peacemaker” lesson focuses on asking for forgiveness and moving forward in reconciliation. We will learn about Maria and her grandmother who is a storyteller from the Indigenous community. We'll also read about the Good Samaritan and how God wants us to show compassion and work towards healing.
In this “Kids Care Peacemaker” lesson we introduce the biblical concept of peace and explore the issue of bullying through the story of Joseph. With discussion questions, children will learn how Joseph forgave his brothers and how God wants us to be peacemakers.
This year’s Kids Care – Peacemakers – is a five-lesson children’s resource on what it means to be peacemakers from a biblical perspective. Kids will explore forgiveness, praying for people who have been hurtful, refusing retaliation, and how to help resolve conflicts peacefully. Peacemakers trust God to bring justice, following Jesus’ way of sacrificial love. The curriculum includes fun activities, crafts and games, Bible lessons, stories and fundraising suggestions that will encourage your children’s group to be God’s peacemakers, expand their notion of community in the world, and be moved to action.
Resources including a sermon outline, small group guide, update video and a bookmark with prayer points to guide you and your church as you stand in solidarity with the global church.
