Advent 2: John the Baptist

Life with God is good because God is good.

Lesson Recap: John the Baptist says, “Prepare the way of the Lord!”

At home (bedtime, car rides, mealtime etc.):

Ask- Does anyone in your family have a story to share about their own baptism? What does the priest do with the water at a baptism?

Say- John the Baptist told people to look at themselves, make a fresh start, and begin again. He baptized them and said someone (Jesus) was coming to lead the way!

Wonder - I wonder what it means to be baptized? I wonder how we can prepare the way of the Lord? I wonder why we light candles on the Advent wreath?

Pray- Use the Advent Wreath booklet to pray this week! Alternately, you may pray: Loving God, Help us prepare for your coming. Amen.

Act- We will have an opportunity to serve on Saturday, 12/16 at 3 PM. Help us hand out care packages to our friends at The Marshes and Thrive!
