Activity

Work on the memory verse as a family! Write each word of the memory verse (John 5:39 NIV) on an index card. Shuffle the cards together and see if you can put them in the correct order. Do it again, but time yourself to see how long it takes. You can even have a competition within your family to see who can do it the fastest!
