The Story of Creation

The boys and girls in our class, along with the other primary classes, led our weekly celebration at assembly today!

Over the past few weeks, our class has explored the Creation Story. This story describes how God created the world and everything in it. If you look for it in the bible, it comes from Genesis.

Rather than read the Creation Story form the bible, we acted it out. Our two narrators told the story, and several students wore special hats for the retelling.



In the beginning, the earth was empty. God was there and He had a plan. On the first day, God made day and night. 


On the second day, God made the sea and the sky.




On the third day, God made rivers and mountains, trees and flowers. 



On the fourth day, God made the sun, moon and stars. 


On the fifth day, God made the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky. 


On the sixth day, God made the animals. He also made people in his image. 


God made the world and everything in it. When God finished, He rested. 
  

We ended our celebration by singing the song He's Got the Whole World In His Hands. Not only did we use our voices, but we used our hands, too, and learned sign language to accompany the lyrics! Can your child remember any of the signs?

We are blessed. God created everything just for us. Let us thank God for all He has created.



God wants us to take care of all that He has made. How can we take care of God's creations?
