Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Consider ye, and call for the mourning women, that they may come; and send for cunning women, that they may come: And let them make haste, and take up a wailing for us, that our eyes may run down with tears, and our eyelids gush out with waters. For a voice of wailing is heard out of Zion, How are we spoiled! we are greatly confounded, because we have forsaken the land, because our dwellings have cast us out. Yet hear the word of the LORD, O ye women, and let your ear receive the word of his mouth, and teach your daughters wailing, and every one her neighbour lamentation. For death is come up into our windows, and is entered into our palaces, to cut off the children from without, and the young men from the streets.       Jer. 9:17-21

Start A Bible
Readers’ Club!

Continually devoting themselves to the
apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the
breaking of bread and to prayer…. (Acts 2:42)

What to Do:

1.   Write out a simple sentence or two explaining each verse of the Bible you will be studying. (One chapter should be enough to study during a session.) Make copies and distribute.

2.   Have students sit at tables and each person at their table will take turns reading their sentence(s) and then read the associated verse(s) from the Bible. Continue this until all members have completed reading the chapter.

3. After the chapter has been read, the assigned group leader will “open the floor” and lead the group discussion by commenting on verses, asking questions, explaining scriptures, and encouraging feedback and comments from the group.

IDEA STARTER!

“Starting a Bible Readers’ Club is a good way of getting members involved in fellowship and studying the Word of God! Our club met once a month, on Sunday afternoons, from 3:00 p.m. – 5:30 p.m. This is not your traditional Bible class. The format is unique and refreshing. There were a number of people, including college students, who studied with us that rarely attended our Sunday morning classes!” Light refreshments were served.

Children Love a VBS
Graduation Ceremony!

Permit the children to come to Me;
do not hinder them…. (Mark 10:14)

pexels-photo-157526.jpeg

What to Do:

  1. Go online and search for “Children’s graduation caps”. (Some are as low as 3.99 each.) Be sure to order a sample cap prior to your ceremony, to determine the quality.
  2. Appoint someone from your membership, such as a school principal, to advise or help with the ceremony.
  3. Create simple invitations and have children invite parents and other family members (Mark 10:13-16).
  4. Ask a church volunteer, who is familiar with graphic design, to create children’s certificates from software templates.
  5. Call names and present certificates as you would during any graduation. Have cake and punch after the ceremony!


IDEA STARTER!

“Our Vacation Bible School administrators wanted to offer a graduation for the children who participated in our weekday VBS activities. The program was called “Teach The Children.” Some children made presentations and there were encouraging comments from teachers. One of the most exciting times of this event was to see the children in the background preparing, scurrying, and putting on their caps. They were so excited! This was “their graduation” and many proud parents showed up for the ceremony!”
