Have you wondered how we are getting footprints on the wall? Well it isn't easy! As the children ask Jesus into their heart, we have them talk to their parents. If the parents agree that the child has truly decided to FOLLOW JESUS, we celebrate with their footprint on the wall. As we wash the paint off their foot we talk about how Jesus washed His disciples' feet. We tell them that they should find ways to serve others as Jesus did. Some start right then by washing the paint off from each others feet. It is also a good time to talk about the meaning of baptism. Those who are baptised will have a cross painted on their footprint.Monday, May 19, 2008
