God Has a Plan for Me

Esther Saves God's People

 

Last week, we heard Esther's story of having to make a difficult decision. This week we are going to hear more of her story and see how God had a plan all along.

Our story is from Esther 8:5 - 17.

ACTIVITY | Under Construction

INSTRUCTIONS: Provide plastic cups, dry spaghetti, marshmallows, yarn, string, and Jenga blocks to build a tower. Encourage them to devise a plan, construct their tower, and then present it to the group.

Gather the supplies and try to build the tallest tower you can. Work as a family. 

Praise Party & Victory Feast

Esther 8 tells us that after the Jews were saved, there was a time of happiness and joy. Let's celebrate today with a praise party and victory feast!

 

INSTRUCTIONS: Play upbeat music and encourage the kids to dance. You can add festive elements such as streamers and noisemakers if you want. Set out a couple of snacks for the kids, such as Rice Krispy treats, fruit, popcorn, or veggies and dip.
