Zacchaeus
Luke 19:1-10**
Here we meet up with Zacchaeus, he was a tax collector, short in stature and this made him a very unhappy man, often, to make himself happier he charged people extra taxes so he could buy things to make himself happier… it didn't work and he was very unpopular. Our story is about the time Zacchaeus climbed a tree to see Jesus. We have games to play, a story to listen to, crafts, colouring, a bible verse we can learn and a prayer to share. Along the way we hear that Jesus saw Zacchaeus up the tree and called him down and said he wanted to dine with him. There ended up being a crowd sitting around the unused dinner table, Zacchaeus realised money and possessions did now make him happy, he saw the world differently and vowed to change and make recompense. It is all divided into 2 age groups, 6 and under and 7 and over, then a second section for family study that also has prompts for preschoolers and teens so you can tailor it to your needs.
