Kid’s Challenge Day 10

It’s the end of Week 2, so it’s time for a simple challenge! It’s Wacky Hair Day
 
God even counts every hair on your head! So don’t be afraid. You are worth more than even the birds that God also created and loves.     Luke 12:7
 

Don’t be afraid.  Show me your most crazy, wacky hair and remember Luke 12:7 which tells us that God counts every hair on our heads.  Take a picture with your wacky hair (if your hair is too short, any type of hat will work) and post it with the hashtag #spencerkids

Bonus points are available for this challenge: one extra point for every additional person who is in your photo with wacky hair.

Kid’s Challenge Day 9

Day 9 Challenge
 
Jesus tells us to love our neighbor (and this doesn’t mean only the people who live next door).  During this time, while we cannot go to our neighbor’s house, we can still find other ways to show love. 
 
 

Think about people who are by themselves right now, including our Nursing Home or Homebound friends (they don’t have to be related to Spencer). Let’s show love to them in a special way today. Find materials in your house to make a card or create a picture that will brighten their day, then mail it to them. If you need an address, let me know and I will get it to you. Let’s love our neighbors today! To complete the challenge, post or send me a picture of your efforts with the hashtag #spencerkidslove.

Kids’ Challenge Day 8

Day 8 Challenge

Alright friends, I think some of you are beginning to get a bit stir-crazy being at home. I wonder if your rooms are a mess!  I hope not because you are going to need to find some things to complete today’s challenge. There is a list of items included in my post.  Find as many of them as you can around your house. Gather all the items into one place and take a picture of your treasure!  Post your picture with the hashtag #spencerkidstreasure

You will earn one point for each item that you check off the list!  As you go on your treasure hunt, remember that God’s love is a treasure, and God gives us this treasure so that we always remember that God is with us.
 
 

Treasure is kept in clay jars. In the same way, we have the treasure of God’s good news in these earthly bodies of ours. The awesome power of God belongs to God and doesn’t come from us.  We are experiencing all kinds of trouble, but we aren’t crushed. We are confused, but we aren’t depressed.  We are harassed, but we aren’t alone. God does not abandon us. We are knocked down, but we aren’t knocked out.

2 Corinthians 4:7-9
