Object lesson - Abram's call: ‘Quite a walk!’


A fun creative activity that will help you reflect on the story of God calling Abram

Abram and his family had to walk for 700 kilometres from Haran to the promised land. That is quite a distance. How does it feel to walk such a long way? Of course we cannot replicate this amazing journey with the children, but we can let the children experience some of it.

This is going to be quite an (fun) experience for the children!
