Advent Sunday Activities

28/11/2021

 
Hey Kids,  Today is Advent Sunday.  The word Advent means coming.  It is about Jesus coming to be with us first as a baby long ago.  Through these four weeks leading up to Christmas we remember how God told his people he would send Jesus and how that happened.
But we also remember that he promised to come again and we prepare our hearts for that future time.

We have some craft activities for you to do at home and some your family can do together.
The theme for the first Sunday of Advent (today) is Hope.  There are a couple of sheets about hope.

Then there are sheets for the whole season of Advent:
  • A special 'Colouring-in calendar' as you count down the days to Christmas.
  • A Jesse Tree:  Do you remember we have just learnt about Ruth and Boaz?   Jesse was their grandson and the father of King David.  And many generations later from that family line came Jesus.  The Jesse tree helps you gain a big picture view of the Old Testament lead up to Jesus.
  • A nativity scene you can make yourself for your own place.

Have fun!
