Footsteps
The grades 3-5 Sunday School class is making a trail of footsteps during Lent showing ways we live our lives following Jesus and we invite everyone to participate! Please take one or more footsteps from the box in Nolt Auditorium and list something you have done that would
make Jesus smile! You may add your name or be anonymous. There is a second box in which to place completed footsteps. Fill out as many footsteps as you can every week. We want to see how far around the auditorium we can make our trail of footsteps. They can be deeds great or
small. Two examples from the kids are shoveling a neighbor’s driveway and switching sports teams so someone else could be with a friend.
