Family Fun Time

Read “Sticks and Stones” (page 4). Even though Alex was the one whose feelings were hurt, he still reached out to make up with his brother Charlie. This is a good example of being a peacemaker. What can your family do to help each other be peacemakers?

Be sure to get an adult’s help with this activity and recipe.

Following in Jesus’s Footsteps

What can you do to follow Jesus’s example of being a peacemaker?

2. Take turns reading the scriptures out loud. Then, on the back of each footprint, write one thing you can do to follow Jesus’s example this week.

3. Tape the footprints on a door or wall as a reminder to follow in Jesus’s footsteps and be a peacemaker!
