God’s Wonderful Gift from Acts 2:1-47

Note to the parents:

This is the first time that God’s Spirit is available to everyone who believes! Though it may not be as dramatic as in this story, express to your child how amazing it is that God’s Holy Spirit lives inside of all of us who believe in Jesus.

Help your child recall the story by asking simple questions about what happened.

Examples:

• What did they hear and see when the Holy Spirit arrived?
• What did God’s Holy Spirit help everyone in the room to do?
• Did the Holy Spirit help Jesus’ followers tell others about Him?
• Did people believe them?
