We are using an activity from our “Lent Tree” today.

Emphasize God’s loving desire to redeem sinners. Bump into each other and say, “Oh, excuse me. I’m sorry.” And let the other person practice saying, “I forgive you.”

Then try to carry it over into real life. Keeping it fun and light, encourage you kids to try to catch every little mistake they make and ask for forgiveness. We have already had quite a few laughs. We have also had a few tender moments.

Isn’t it a blessing to know that God is so very ready to forgive?
