Advent Crafts of Sunday School
Two Simple Projects for Christmas in Children’s Church
Advent Time is Here! Sunday School Craft Ideas for The Beginning of Advent!
Christmas time is great for many things, including wonderful songs, stories, snacks, and—of course—crafts! There are plenty of fantastic Christmas crafts, but as we look to Advent as the season of preparation for Christ, we are focusing on activities that look to the importance of this time in the church. Here are two potential craft ideas that can be used at the opening of Advent, to open discussion about what it means and how we can celebrate it. Both of these crafts are quite adaptable, depending on your time and resources.
Bible Verses & Craft Captions to Consider…
Prepare the way for the Lord… Advent celebrates HIS coming!
Jesus has come…and will come again!
There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse,
and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit. -Isaiah 11:1Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. -Isaiah 7:14
A voice cries: “In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord; make straight in the desert a highway for our God. -Isaiah 40:3
