Family Discussion: Seeing is believing, but we also believe in things we can't see. Make a list with your child(ten) of things we can't see but we can taste, hear or smell. Some things are too small to see (germs) but we know they are real because we can see what they do to us (make us sick). What are things we can see through (air, glass)? What about things we can only feel in our herts (love, anger, happiness). Jesus tells Thomas that we are blessed when we believe in him without seeing him.
Family Prayer Starter: Say (or sing!) together the refrain of the new Easter hymn we are learning in the Family Service: "Alleluia, alleluia, give thanks to the Risen Lord; Alleluia, alleluia, give praise to His name."
Next date for Sunday FISHING: June 1, after worship and Children's Choir rehearsal. Bring a dish to share and plan to save until 1pm.
