From The Beginners Bible
Luke 10:25-37
Below you will find the story that you can read to the children, then some questions to ask and a prayer at the end. For the prayer I have put in periods where you can pause to have the children repeat after you.
Story:
“One day, a lawyer put Jesus to the test. He said, “I know the law says to love God with all my heart and to love my neighbor as myself. But who is my neighbor?” Jesus told him this parable: “A man was on his way to the city of Jericho. Some robbers beat him. They stole everything he had.” “The man was hurt. He needed help. Along came a priest. The priest saw the man, but he did not stop. Along came a helper in the temple. He saw the man but did not stop. Along came a Samaritan man. When he saw the hurt man, he stopped. The Samaritan man cleaned up the man’s wounds.” “He lifted the man onto his own donkey and took him down the road to an inn. They stayed at the inn. The Samaritan man took care of the hurt man all night long.” said Jesus. “In the morning, the Samaritan man gave the innkeeper two silver coins and said, ‘Take good care of him until I return.’” After Jesus finished the story, he asked, “Which one of the three men was the neighbor?” The lawyer answered, “The one who took care of the hurt man.” Jesus said, “Go and do as he did.”

Today we are going to make a doctor bag. Click here for the bag pattern. When you cut it out make sure to fold the paper in half so that you can have it fold up like a bag. I also drew a pattern of a red cross for you to cut out. When I do this project I trace the bag in black construction paper and the cross in red. The children can cut out the bag or you can. Then have items like gauze, q-tips, bandages and cotton balls out for the children to glue onto their bags. You can also expand on the project by talking with your children about why doctors may need these items in their bag. Click here to see the video. Click here for the doctor bag pattern.
