October 1st

This week we begin our study of God's faithful servant, Noah.

Genesis 6:14-16

God told Noah to build a huge wooden boat called an ark. 

"Get some good strong wood to build the boat, and cover it inside and out with tar.  Put a roof on the top and build rooms inside. Put a door on one side. When the flood comes you will be safe."

Noah did as God said. People watched and wondered. They even laughed at him! Why was he building a boat so far from the sea?

A Song for Noah:

Sail, Sail, Sail the Ark

There are many learning activities to go along with the story of Noah. Here are a few that are planned for this week.

*Coloring Noah and the Ark

*Matching magnet animals

*Playing hide and seek with the animals
