The Secret of the Wild Forest (EPA afternoon programme)

Submitted by Hrisko on

The idea of this EPA afternoon is to begin with the story of the Secret of the Wildwood and look at the lives of the two children Ruth and Philip, making the connection that Jesus loves each of us, no matter what we are.

Introduction to the topic (Meet Ruth and Philip-scene)

In the first EPA afternoon we introduce the children to the story of Ruth and Philip. A skit has been prepared in advance and the day leaders participate. The skit is to introduce our main characters from the topic Ruth and Philip.

Play

The next thing in our primer is the game, which you can see described here https://youngstarswiki.org/bg/wiki/art/igra-stroene-na-koliba

A treat

Our treat is themed and linked to the story.

Praise and sharing

We continue with praise and sharing. The sharing has a key message "Jesus loves me no matter what I am" with the passage Mark 10:13-16 used.

Home

One of the leaders prepares cards in advance with the names of different birds to give to the children. The children have to find information about the bird they have drawn and present it at our next EPA gathering.
