Activity:
Have four children hold the corners of a bed sheet and seat the remaining children under it.
The sheet is raised like parachute silk as the children all call out the memory verse.
The children take turns until all have sat under or held a corner of the sheet
Story:
Acts 9:32-43; 10; 11:1-18; 12:1-19
Story Summary
Peter went to many towns, preaching and healing the sick. Listen to the exciting things that happened to Peter.
Peter found a man who had been unable to walk for eight years. He said to him “Jesus Christ heals you.” The man was made better immediately.
A kind lady called Dorcas died. She had believed in Jesus and her friends sent for Peter. Peter prayed for Dorcas and immediately she came alive.
God told Peter that He wanted His good news shared with all kinds of people by showing him a vision. God had spoken to a man called Cornelius and told him to send for Peter. Cornelius was not a Jew like Peter, but a Gentile. When Peter told them about Jesus, the Holy Spirit came
upon them and they praised God.
Some time later, King Herod put Peter in prison. He was chained and guarded, but an angel came to Peter. His chains fell off and the angel led him out. Peter went to his friends who were all praying for him. They were amazed and glad to see him. Peter told them to go and tell the other
disciples what God had done.
Craft:
A summary of what the story covered.
What the plan is, is for these faces to be cut our on a strip of paper that can be stapled together in the shape of a ring.
On the band of the ring write the name of the person the child thinks it is that Peter helped.
Draw a smiley face on the faces.
