Do you have any hidden talents? Bring them out in to the light! God wants us to share the talent He has given us
No matter what your talent is, you can enjoy participating in these activities! When you do, send us a picture! We would love to see what you can create.
Daily Prayer
Dear Father, help us to use the talents that you have given us to be what you intended for us to be. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
Write out a list of all your friends and family and one thing they are talented at. Then, call or write them and let them know. We all love to hear that someone appreciates our talents.
Challenge Activities
Set up three or four activity stations with simple directions posted at each. Get your brothers and sisters or friends to participate in the challenges with you.
Some suggested activities:
- Count backward from 50 to 1

Show Off

- Do you think you use the talents you have been given? Why or why not?
- In the next year, would you like to expand your talents? Would you like to be better at the talents you have? Why?
