THE LORD'S PRAYER


I have attempted to teach the children how to sign The Lord’s Prayer. They did pretty well! The next step is for them (and all of us) is to get the Signing down. The kids are also learning a kid friendly version of the Lord’s Prayer to sing while they sign. Hopefully, with your help, we can all sign and dance and sign The Lord’s Prayer regularly in worship. Once you can sign it, and sing it you will never forget it!



Included here is a YouTube link of the man from whom I learned the LP- signing. Please look it up. Learn it yourself and teach your kids! It will be fun; you’ll be discipling your kids in the faith,,

and you’ll have a new dinner activity for your crew!!
