Expressing Love: Family/Mission Activity
Trinity, in its great mystery, is the perfect representation of a beloved community. We talk about the idea that God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are one, just as much as they are individuals—three-in-one. Focus on how this equality of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit is the perfect example of how a faithful community, the kingdom on earth should be. Read Matthew 28:16-20. Talk about what else in your house has three different parts yet make one complete thing, creating a trinity. (Hint, think about an egg) Have each person in your house draw an outline of a cross. This cross will provide the boundaries within which the students will build the future community. Encourage them to draw roads, people, buildings, and whatever they would like! Remind them to consider how their neighbors, loved ones, and even people they don’t like can find love and community on this map.
