Creation

We had a great night on Friday night. Thanks to all of you for coming along ... :)

Tonight's theme was about creation. How did the world get here? Who made it? etc?

First we played a few games ...

Playdough Creations.
(In pairs we had to make certain animals in 30 seconds.)



Sit down if .....
(Some of us had some embarrassing confessions to make here .... who hasn't has a shower all week? who has never worn the same socks two days in a row? etc ...)



Creations.
(This time we got a few items and we had to make a bridge that could hold a choc bar. If the bridge held it up we were allowed to share the choc bar!)


We now had a short break from the games and got together in our groups to discuss the order that God created the world. This is what we learned.

God created the world in 6 days. And this is what He made on each day:

Day One: God made light
Day Two: He separated the water and the dry land
Day Three: God made the vegetation (trees, plants, etc)
Day Four: God made the sun, moon and stars.

Day Five: God made the fish and the birds
Day Six: God made animals and God made the first man.

On Day Seven God rested. Not because He was tired, but because everything He had made was very good and He was finished. By resting on the seventh day God made this day special. That's why on Sunday we like to also rest from our work and dedicate the day to God.


Helicopters
(for this game we all got to pull a pantyhose over our head. We had to helicopt
er this around trying to catch other's helicopters. )





We finished the evening with watching a short video clip about the six days of creation.




Thanks everyone for such a fun evening!!!

See you all again this week Friday.

Love from your
DropZone leaders.
