What We Were Up to Today
BEAMING BIBLE STORIES

Today we looked at Daniel 6 and learned about Daniel and the Lions Den with via puppets or skits!


This story teaches us that God's love and protection do not always mean we will be spared from consequences, pain, or harm. We trust God not for a specific desired outcome, but that God can take anything the world throws at us and make it work for our good.

Like Daniel, we can trust God to help us rise above and beyond the world's schemes and to do amazing thing in and through our lives!
PLANET PRESCHOOL

We had a great time in our two preschool classes today!

  • EP-320 came to tell us about faith
  • The teachers told the story about Daniel and the Lions den, with the preschoolers interacting with their ferocious lion roars!
  • They crafted a lions mane from precut paper plates using strips of paper and imagination
  • Theme song music and dance with lion snacks followed
  • Since it was raining outside we didn't go to the playground but instead played animal matching games.
  • At Galactic Games we had a really fun relay
  • To end our time before the day's closing we put together puzzles, sorted animals, and spent some time in the blast off tent!
TWINKLING TUNES

Today we sang and
danced to our theme song with Mission Commander Matt!
Play the song and see the dance moves!
GALACTIC GAMES

The youth had to have faith when it came to navigating through an out-of-this-world obstacle course!

The connection is that we use our faith to help us overcome obstacles in our life. Like Daniel we put our faith in God!
The youth did this course multiple times, each time getting a little more difficult. The last time they went through voyagers were sent through the course blindfolded and had to rely on and have faith in their partner to get them through!
COSMIC CRAFTS

With paper plates, construction paper, a popsicle stick and lots of fun and imagination, youth made lion masks!
SPACE SNACKS

While the lions may have wanted to feast on Daniel, God shut the lions' mouths.
At our snack time we turned the tables on those lions and opened our mouths to enjoy a fun snack made of Graham crackers, pretzels, chocolate chips and icing. Then we washed it down with lemonade.
