Day 2 February 23

"Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness."Matthew 3:15
For older children read the whole chapter 3 in Matthew
Discussion
Take time to discuss your own Baptism. What did it mean for Jesus to be Baptized?  Some people are baptized as babies some people chose to be baptized when they were grown ups. God loves all of us!


Quick Prayer
Dear loving God, Thank YOU for sending Jesus to teach us the way. Thank you for water. Thank you for cleaning our spirit with water. Thank  you for loving us even when we make mistakes. 

Lenten Symbol for your Easter Tree
Jesus' Baptism


Activity Ideas
*Make a Lenten Calendar and add ideas to help others each day. Here's a great one to get you started.
*Lent lasts 40 days ( Not counting Sundays) Think of 40 Blessings that God has provided your family- you could make a game of pictionary to make it exciting!
* If you don't have a food collection box start one to take to church with you!
