Leader Guide

Craft

Make copies of the Pentecost Coloring Page, one per child plus extras.

Give each child a coloring page, plus crayons, markers, or colored pencils. Have them put their names on the back of the page. Children may color their pages while you lead the discussion below:

  1. Have you ever worked on a group project, but everyone seemed to be working on their own—not together as a group? How was this solved?
  2. How do you think God’s Spirit could help a group work on a project, like a special event or service at church?
  3. Tell me some examples in our Bible story of how God’s Spirit brought unity.
  4. Do you think the believers praying in the upstairs room were frightened to see flames of fire over everyone’s head? Why or why not?
  5. Would you have been frightened, excited, or a little of both? Please explain.
  6. Why do you think the Holy Spirit appeared as a flame of fire?
