Shine a Light: Make a light (candle, flashlight, light switch) and say, “Jesus is the light of the world!”

Sing Together: “Do My Best” Love, I’ll love, I’ll love you Lord forever. Love, I’ll love, I’ll love you Lord forever. I’ll do my best. I’ll do my best, woah-oh-oh. I’ll do my best for you!

Talk About It!

Jesus told his disciples that he was going to his Father’s house. What do you think God’s house looks like? How many rooms are there? What does God’s house smell like? What foods might be there? What might you hear in God’s house?

When Jesus told his disciples that he was going to prepare a room for them in God’s house, they were worried that they wouldn’t know the way, and that there wouldn’t be room for them. What did Jesus tell them? Is there a room for you in God’s house?

Digging deeper: How do you know there is room for you in God’s house? First of all, you know that you can trust Jesus’ own words. Second, think about your own ability to love. Do you only have enough love for one family member or friend? Of course not! And God’s love is even bigger, even better. God’s love is eternal, and that means God always has a place for us.

Family Activity Choices

Pick activities to do together! Supplies are provided in our Monthly At-Home Kits you picked up at our drive thru events or ask to have delivered to your home.

Activity: Build a house with many rooms Using materials in your home (blocks, Lego, dominoes, blankets), build a house with many rooms. When you have finished, recite this Bible verse, “My father’s house has many rooms.” John 14:2

Pray Together

“Dear Jesus, thank you that there is always room for me in Your house! Amen”

Bless Each Other

At the end of your time, give each other a special blessing to remember one of God’s promises.

Go on either side of a door, one person knock, the other one open the door and say “I’m so glad you’re here!”
