H. O. P. E.

Show your church’s love for the BUILDING H.O.P.E. ministries by making a banner to

hang. Pre-cut the triangles and divide the group into 8 groups to make the flags to

create a beautiful banner. Personalize it by changing the images and colors.

We can help each other by BUILDING

H.O.P.E. in Malawi. They need

education, medicine and medical

clinics.

Love each other as I have loved you.

John 15:15

“Where is my hope? Who can see any hope for me? “ Job 17:15

Building Healthy Families

in Malawi

Make a bank. Any clean plastic container with a lid

will work. Remove the labels and cut a small rec-

tangle slot for the coins. Paste or tape on the new

label. (Shown below) Encourage each child to begin

Building HOPE for other children by filling their bank.

How Can Your Hands Help?

Make a BUILDING H.O.P.E. banner of

handprints to show support for the four

ministries. Hands can be traced , paint-

ed, or colored. Write your name, and a

blessing or the name of one of the ministries on the hands.

Playdough

1 cup salt

2 cups flour

2 cups water

2 Tablespoons cooking oil

4 teaspoons cream of tartar

food coloring

Mix the first 5 ingredients. Add drops of

coloring until it is the desired color. Cook

about 5 minutes in a medium size pot. Stir

constantly until it thickens. Remove and

knead out the lumps. Store in Ziploc bags.

Dough shapes will harden when left out to

dry.

Trace your helping hands or make and

dry Playdough handprints.

For Middle School and above, suggest they use their

devices to search each ministry. Have them develop a

prayer list for the needs of each ministry based on their

research. Or, provide a small notebook to collect prayer

requests for the Building HOPE ministries:

Malawi Health Care needs clean water, electricity, medi-

cine, rural clinics and more

Guatemala Ministry needs money for education and more

Our churches need help to grow strong. We need technolo-

gy, worship ideas, leadership training and more

Camp Grier needs leaders, equipment for activities, trails

for hiking, biking. horseback riding and more

Add more as the discussions progress.

LABELS FOR MAKING A COIN BANK FOR YOUTH

Collect clean frosting containers. Cover the white container with bright construction paper,

wrapping paper, or wallpaper. Glue the labels on and cut the coin slot.

Other containers will also work. Pringle cans work well – labels will need to be re-sized.
