Big Idea: Jesus Cares (part 1)

Matthew 14v13–21; Mark 6v30–44; Luke 9v10–17; John 6v1–15. Jesus cared so much for the crowd following Him that He taught the people, healed them, and fed them. Jesus provides abundantly for us because He cares for us.

Balls are a favorite toy. Find a wide-open space and allow your little one to test her own power by seeing how far she can throw!

Blessings are often used in the Bible. A blessing can be a prayer of commission, a portion of Scripture, or words to encourage and guide.

Open a Bible and read Psalm 23v1: “The Lord is my shepherd; I lack nothing.”
