Sunday School Crafts Series: Praying Hands to Show We Love God
If we want to show our moms and dads we love them, we can hug them. We can’t do that with God yet, can we? So we pray to Him instead! He hears everything we say and is very happy when we speak to him!
Sunday School Crafts Instructions
Give each student a sheet of yellow or brown or pink construction paper. Have them put their left hand on the left side of the sheet and trace around it. Then, have them put their right hand down and either trace around it, or have a friend trace around it (when tracing with the opposite hand they use in writing, they may find it too hard.) MOST IMPORTANT: Have them trace so that their thumbs are overlapping.
When they have cut out the hands, they should open up as one cutout.
Have them fold in half where the thumbs meet to make praying hands.
One on hand, they can paste the little message that says, “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” —
Exodus 20:3
On the other hand, they can paste the little message that says, “With God all things are possible.” —
Matthew 19:26
