fasting

in the next week, our congregation will be doing a 10 day fast.

i'm trying to think of creative ways to tie fast-teaching into the crossroads kidz children's ministry.

anyone have any ideas?

we are going to make cards where the kids can write what they are fasting from (foods, tv, video games, etc) & also ones they can write their prayer requests.

our congregation is also doing a 24 hr prayer vigil at the church the weekend of palm sunday, where different people sign up to be at the church to pray for 24 hours straight.

we're hoping to have an hour when the kids meet & can pray during that time, too. so, parents, keep that in mind!
