Tuesday´s VBS lesson was about the Potter and the Clay. It was such a fun lesson!!!! We began with the Frog Prince puppet skit, which tells the story of a frog who wants to be a prince because he doesnt like being green. But then he learns that God made him special and that he needs to change his insides, not his outsides, if he wants to be happy. I must say that Charliann showed off some pretty sweet skills with her frog puppet!
Afterwards, Elizabeth explained how God made us out of the dust of the ground and then we sang a song we had made up to go with the Bible verse. The song included a lot of dancing and at one point the kids made a blowing noise to show how God breathed into Adam to make him a living creature.
After the song we had a visit from a very special guest: Jeremiah, or rather, Susan dressed up in a really comical old prophet costume. She explained the passage out of Jeremiah 18 about God comparing his people to clay and He is the potter, and he has formed each one of us as He decided. Then, the kids were given a piece of clay and separated into their classrooms to make something. My class was great! The teacher, Erik, was very creative, and he showed the kids how to make lots of neat things with their clay. Some of the inventions included: a miniature cooking pot with lid, a basket with woven handles, a teapot, and a cup.
