Rollins Team,

Please read through the skit and be thinking about roles you want to play or could play.  I will be at Kemp Elementary by 5, so be there as soon as you can at that time, I know a few of you get off at 5 and won't be able to get there before.  Today will feel a little hectic for you, probably for everyone, but don't worry about it, just be willing to jump in where you see a need.  Afterwards, I would like to eat, hang out, regroup, and pray.  I hope that you have a good day, and I will see everyone tonight.

[sbbc2010] Skit for Day 1





O.K., everyone, here is a possible skit for you to use for Day 1. This was Brynn and Kelsey's concept. I just wrote the script. As I stated on the attached document, the skit is meant to be ad lib, but I wrote a script to give you the framework to work off of.

I know at East Side we are going to meet 30 minutes early each day to practice the skit and go over the games. You might talk to your team about doing something similar.

Thanks! Sorry you're just now getting the skit, but really. Don't feel the need to memorize it. By now, you know the Bible lesson for the day. This is just an adaptation of that story in a way that might make it relevant to their lives.

I guess at this rate, I'll have to sit and write each day's skit the night before. We didn't put together a skit for Day 5, because we didn't know the Bible passage; HOWEVER, that's a great opportunity for you to get experience writing a skit! Your team can come up with an appropriate skit to conclude the week, using the same recurring characters. If you're going to serve in children's ministry, it's great to know how to take a Bible passage and put together a skit to accompany that passage. One thing we've realized in children's ministry at LH is that we haven't trained people HOW to do things from the ground up. We're trying to change that and here is a good opportunity for just that. Just so you won't learn the hard way like I did: always pray for the Lord to show you WHAT He wants you to teach to the kids BEFORE you come up with the METHOD of teaching that concept. (i.e. Don't create a great skit and then ask, "I wonder what Bible passage we could use to go with this?") That's backwards. God will show you what to teach and then you use the training and gifts He's given you to find a way to relay that message to the kids most effectively.

Thanks, everyone!

I'll make sure they are in your box.  I'll meet Dustin at Kemp at 5:00 with the box, water coolers and the key to the vacant apartment (1500 MLK).

I just had another idea for concluding Day 2 with the large group. Take it or leave it.

Have one leader come in front of the group. Put something on his/her arm to represent leprosy - such as baby powder - but make it something that washes off quickly. Have a bucket of water that the person can dip their hand/arm into. Here is an example:

Brian comes up and I put baby powder on his arm as I explain what leprosy is. I ask them about the Bible story they heard today. As I'm asking questions, I dip his arm in the bucket of water seven times. The kids just see me dipping his arm. They don't know that I'm not actually getting water on the baby powder, but I WILL be putting water on his hand, so that it drips when he pulls it out, giving the illusion that I did in fact dip his arm. On the seventh and final dip, I will quickly swipe the powder off with water while his arm is in the bucket. It will come out clean this time!

It will take a larger bucket, like a paint bucket or something deep enough to put his forearm in.

The key is to keep talking the whole time, so they don't focus so much on his arm that they realize what I'm doing. My hand has to guide his arm down into the water each time, so that they do not see me do something different on the 7th time.

Does that make sense??

I was just thinking put an oatmeal paste on dustins face and then
throwing a bucket of water at him!

On that note who is getting the oatmeal and who has a bucket?
