“Have you ever looked up at the stars and tried to wonder what is up there? It God way up there, in heaven, looking down on us? Have you wished you could reach up and touch the stars? Well, today, with your help, I am going to reach all the way to God.
Everyone stand in a circle, as close as you can. Reach up with your hand as high as you can. Reach together, touch fingers if you can.
Good. Now I am going to reach up and touch God.” (At this point, reach out and touch each one of the children. Hold their hands briefly, if possible) “You don’t have to to reach to heaven to touch God, as God s in each one of you. Your are filled with the miracles that God gives us each day. So if you ever want to be with God, just reach out… to your family, your friends, and to yourself. You’ll find God there. I promise.
PRAYER: Thank you God for being with us always; for protecting us an loving us and seeing that we are never alone. For all these gifts and blessings, we say “thank you and amen.”
