Youth Group Lenten Journey

 As part of our Lenten journey, we will be exploring our faith.  The only leader for our journey is Jesus.  The aim is to discover more about who God is and more about who we are.  Each week there will be a challenge. 

 

Week 3 – Holy Walking

After his Baptism, Jesus would often walk into the hills to pray.  There is a long tradition of pilgrimage and the challenge for this week is to go for a walk, during which you can reflect on Gods creation in all you see and the people you meet.                                                                                                                                   

Challenge

  • After the service, draw round your feet, cut out the pattern to decorate the walls of the Foden room.  This will show the ‘Holy Walking’ you are doing during Lent.
  • If you walk to school or Church look at Gods wonderful world and fill in the chart on the other sign of this sheet.  Bring the sheet to Church next week and we will put them up on our Lenten wall.
  • If you get on a bus, get off a stop earlier and take time to think about the opportunities you had that day to follow Jesus, or the opportunities you missed.

 

Jesus said 

I am the Light of the World – whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the Light of Life.    

 

A Daily Walking Prayer

Lord Jesus

You often walked up into the hills to pray

And we are walking now to spend time in your company

Guide our steps and lead us into a closer friendship with you

Teach us the way of love, looking out for one another's needs

Teach us to notice the wonder of your creation

Amen

  

Holy Walking Challenge

Note down how many of the items listed below that you see on your journey to school, or as you walk. Take time to thank God for each of them.  There are also other things that you can do to show how you tried to follow Jesus.  Add others if you do them.  Bring this chart to Church next week so we can decorate our Lenten Wall.
