and more games

Had a blast at 9:45 Live (our Family Friendly Kids Service) at Redoubt North Wesleyan on Sunday. Working in Ephesians we talked about obeying our parents (Eph 6:1-3). With the link to the Old Testament (check it out) the logical game to play was "Old Testament." I've copied it below - but first I have to tell you that even the adults needed a clue to get the words!

Have fun!
