Publisher's Synopsis
Our Culture Loves Super-Heroes! Hey, we all love heroes, but let's let our children meet God's heroes! Would you like to teach your children about church history with a Heroes for Jesus Party? It's a blast! We have celebrated our Christian heritage and history with Heroes for Jesus Parties for years. Everyone always has a grand time! We love making memories while we learn together about mighty men and women who have changed the world for the glory of God! Instructions are given for setting up your own Heroes for Jesus Party, along with monologues and costume suggestions for each hero and heroine. You just need some volunteers to dress up as a favorite church history hero or heroine and stay in character for a couple of hours. There is also a game or activity for each station. In addition to learning how to have a Heroes for Jesus Party, let's take a peek at ways to celebrate the Saints and why heroes matter. We will also take a serious look at Halloween. Of course, we have to add autumn recipes to make and bake for your festivities. As a bonus, you will receive the template and instructions to make your own board game: Paul's Journey to Rome. We love this game! It's easy and fun to put together. You will just need to add dice and purchase some Tootsie Pops.
