Activity for June 29: Take a walk with a compass. Go east. Ask your kids when they think the compass will says they’ve gone as far east as possible. After awhile, explain that you could travel east — or west — forever. Discuss how this is similar to God’s forgiveness. As far as the east is from the west — that’s how far God has removed our sins from us. (Psalm 103:12)
