Story Time: The Tower and God's Love
Long, long ago, people tried to build a tall, tall tower to make themselves famous. But God said, 'No, I want you to go everywhere and tell everyone about Me!' So God mixed up their words so they couldn't understand each other. The people moved far away to different places.
But God had a wonderful plan! He sent Jesus to bring everyone back together. Now people from everywhere can be friends and love Jesus together!
Let's Move!
Stand up! Let's pretend to build a tower — stack your hands high, high, high! (Reach up tall)
Now let's walk around the room like we're going to different places! (Walk in a circle)
Now let's all come back together and give a big hug! (Group hug or hand-hold)
Jesus brings us together!
