Description

In her book, “Have You Filled a Bucket Today?” Carol McCloud invites us to imagine that we all carry around buckets. When people are kind or when someone encourages us, our buckets are filled. If we are mean to someone, we deplete their buckets. This great children’s book is a good way to talk about the “Golden Rule” in Matthew 7:12 – “Treat others as you’d like to be treated.”

This Messy Church session combines the story book and activities around kindness and service to explore Jesus’ instructions on how to treat others. The session includes 10 activity suggestions (including 2 service projects) as well as instructions for a celebration, song suggestions, and more.
