Phillip and the Ethiopian

Day 1- 01 THE STORYA man, named Phillip, was traveling when he saw an Ethiopian man reading the Bible. The Holy Spirit helped Phillip know what to do. Read what happened.
Read Acts 8:26-34
What did Phillip see the Ethiopian doing? What did Phillip ask the Ethiopian?
What did the Ethiopian need help with?
Did Phillip get to share the good news of Jesus with the Ethiopian?

Day 2- 02 THE WITNESS

Phillip obeyed God and was able to tell someone about Jesus! How cool was it that God made sure that Phillip was there to help the Ethiopian? God knew the Ethiopian needed help so God sent someone to help him. Do you see what God will do for you? He loves you so much that He will give you help when you don’t understand. He does all the work for you!
Read Ephesians 2:8

Day 3- 03 THE SOURCE

Read Acts 4:12
Salvation only comes from whom?
Try to memorize this verse today! Write it on a notecard and put it on your bathroom mirror to help you review it every day this week.

GIVE IT A TRY!

International missionaries leave their country and all the comforts of their home to go share the gospel with others. It would be a fun thing to send a missionary you know a letter or care package. Missionaries need encouragement, too! Send them a letter encouraging them and maybe throw in a few things to remind them of home! If you want to, ask them to write back telling you what they are doing! Don’t know a missionary? Ask your church! They will know exactly who to send your letter or package to!

Day 4- 04 THE MOTIVE

Salvation comes from Jesus. God makes it happen, but He can use you to help Him. Do you want to be a part of what God is doing? God wants you to teach others about Jesus.
Read Matthew 28:19
Go and make __________________ of all the_______________, baptizing them in the name of the ______________, the _________, and the ________ _________.

Day 5- 05 CAUGHT IN THE ACT

There are many missionaries that go to different countries and share Christ with people who don’t have churches. Next time you go to church, ask if they have any true stories about missionaries. Read their story to see what it’s like to be a missionary. Your mom or dad might be able to help you find a story, too.

Write down on your character sheet what you learned from the story of Phillip.
