Craft: Mission Flags
This would be a good way to remind the students of the different places to pray for. You don’t have to do just countries but could use state flags as well.

Game: Telephone
A classic game that is about how a story changes as it is retold over and over. This would be a great game to help drive the point about telling people about Jesus but also making sure your message is clear so it does not get messed up between people.
Craft: Jesus Loves You Doorknob Hanger
Children can share the messages of Jesus love with others by making them doorknob hangers. Cut a piece of card stock to be 2 feet long and 6 inches wide. Cut a hole out of the top big enough to fit over a doorknob. Color the words “Jesus Loves Me” on a piece of colored construction paper. Cut it out and staple, or glue it just under the hole for the doorknob. Next, cut four hearts out of construction paper and write one letter on each heart so that you spell out “LOVE.” Staple or glue the hearts single file from top to bottom on the doorknob hanger. Share the weekly verse John 15:13: “Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends” with the person you give the doorknob hanger to.
