AGES 4-7 “WHEELY REPENT!” Turn the Wheel to see if you can … Because of Jesus, we can repent. As you turn the wheel the windows show the before and after actions, how one action called for repentance, and how they repented. For example: “I gave my friend a shove.” (side 1) “But quickly picked her up and gave her a love.” (side 2). Opposite windows show repentance. These can start brainstorming. Invent more situations.
