I have one more fun VBS song to practice and sing together as a family for the week. Here’s this week’s song: https://youtu.be/WBtswaQuWT4

If you want to print the song lyrics, here they are:

Beautiful Savior

Beautiful Savior, King of creation,
Son of God and Son of Man!
Truly I’d love Thee,
Truly I’d serve Thee,
Light of my soul, my joy, my crown.

Fair are the meadows, fair are the woodlands, Robed in flow’rs of blooming
spring; Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer, He makes our sorr’wing spirit sing.
Beautiful savior, Lord of the nations,
Son of God and son of man!
Glory and honor,
Praise, adoration
Now and forever more be Thine!

Week 4 Game: Bandage Tag
Supplies:
Adhesive bandages, 1 per person, per round
Cones, chalk, or pool noodles
Garbage bag for wrappers and bandages

Here’s how the game works:
Put an adhesive bandage on each other’s backs.
When the designated leader says, “Go!” everyone who is playing tries to pull bandages off the other people in the game without having their own bandage get pulled off. (No grabbing of shirts or holding onto people! Participants can only pull at the bandages!)
Once a person’s bandage is pulled, they can continue to try removing other players’ bandages.
The last person with a bandage on their back is the winner.
Set a 2-minute time limit per round.

Connect Questions:
End the game, by sitting with your child(ren) and talking about what they’ve learned so far in the story of Jesus healing the ten lepers using these questions: (answers are in parentheses)

Take some time, inviting each person to share a story of an injury they’ve had.
What did you need to do to heal that injury?
Our bodies get injured all the time. Did you know that our souls can get injured too? What hurts our souls the most?
Jesus had God’s power to heal people’s bodies and souls. How did He heal the men in our Bible story today?
How does Jesus heal us from our sin?

Hope you have a great Wednesday as you enjoy the snack and game for today!
