Leader Introduction
Welcome students as they arrive with their parents.
OPTIONAL: As they arrive, play the song "The Golden Nugget.”
Today’s Bible story reinforces and expands on the previous two lessons about the poor widow who gave a tiny offering, but it was everything she had. Back in the western town, Professor Fern helps a dejected Widget understand that there are many ways to be generous besides giving money. Children learn the importance of generosity: To cheerfully give and share what God gives you. The lesson today will focus on giving our time and talents to God and others.
