Leader Introduction
Welcome students as they arrive with their parents.
OPTIONAL: As they arrive, play the song “Patience in Waiting.”
In today’s video, Gears can’t wait to unveil his new invention: the Wait-Be-Gone Time-Span Accelerator. Actually, Gears has a hard time waiting for anything, which is exactly what his new invention is supposed to solve. There is a big problem, though: the new Time-Span Accelerator doesn’t work, and Gears must wait on a new part to fix it!
Gizmo streams Miss Tina’s Bible story about Abraham and Sarah to Gear’s phone as Gears impatiently waits for his package at the Post Office. The bots discover that patience is a Fruit of the Spirit that God grows inside us. Even though waiting can be hard, it is often necessary to receive God’s blessings in our lives. In today’s lesson, children will learn the importance of patience, which means to trust and wait without complaining.
