Rules

**Host**
Welcome to the Train Station, Jr. Conductors! I’m so glad that you are visiting. 


**Co-Host** enters carrying a tray of cups and plates. The **Co-Host** pretends like he/she is about to drop the tray. Wobble back and forth across the stage.


**Co-Host**
Watch out! I might drop these. 

**Host**
Oh my, let’s stand up and pretend to carry a tray of plates and cups, like our friend.

(Lead the kids in pretending to hold a tray.)

**Co-Host**
You’re very good at this job. You should help me. I’m serving dinner to my friends at a party at Chef Bananas’ cake shop.

**Host**
That’s what we are going to learn about today, serving. If you’re ready to discover God’s truth with Conductor Carl, say, “Choo-choo!” 

Welcome

Worship

**Host**
What is happening to Chef Bananas’ cake shop? 

**Co-Host**
It is flooding. If we don’t stop the water, then I won’t be able to have my party.

**Host**
Maybe you could take this bucket and use it to get rid of some of the water.

**Co-Host**
Jr. Conductors, do you think I could help?

**Host**
Let’s stand and practice our Big Point again to answer that question. 



**Host**
**I Can Serve!**

**Host**
Anyone can help. We call that serving. Let’s play a game. I’ll act out some different ways that someone can serve. You and the Jr. Conductors can try to guess what I’m doing.

(Act out different tasks, such as washing dishes or folding laundry, using the props. Help the kids identify the task.)

**Co-Host**
Could the Jr. Conductors serve like that, too?

?
**Host**
Shake your head, “Yes.” We can all choose to serve, and we don’t have to do it alone. We have God’s help.

**Co-Host**
I’m going to use that bucket to serve Chef Bananas.






Engage 1

**Host**
Do you think that Farmer Faith can help Chef Bananas? She sure can because we know the Big Point is true for everyone. Let’s stand and say the Big Point again. 


**Host**
**I Can Serve!**


**Co-Host**
Inspector Nigel found a great verse in the Bible.





**Co-Host**
Philippians 2:4 (NIrV), “Each of you should also look out for the good of others.” How do we do that?

**Host**
That means we want to be on the lookout for ways to help other people.

**Co-Host**
Let’s look at these pictures and see if we can figure out how to help. Jr. Conductors, make binoculars with your hands, so we can look closely.

(With each of the following slides, have the kids identify the problem and identify how the child is helping. You can act it out with the kids)




**Host**
You did a great job! Keep looking all around to find ways you can serve. You can look at home, at your school, and even here at church.

**Co-Host**
I’m glad that we can all follow our Big Point. Let’s stand up and worship God.


Engage 2

Big Story Slides - pu-ps-l3-big-story-slide-1.jpg

That little boy wasn’t sure if his lunch could help, but he still gave what he had. You can too. Let’s pray and ask God to help us think of a way to help someone else. God can give you great ideas to help. Take a moment and pray quietly at your seat. (Pause) Great job! I’ll pray, too.



Big Story

**Host**
I’m so glad Farmer Faith chose to help Chef Bananas. She used our Big Point, 


**Host**
**I Can Serve!**

**Co-Host**
Because of Farmer Faith’s help, I can have my party there tonight. I think I will practice the Big Do that Conductor Carl gave us at my party tonight.

**Host**
That’s a great idea. Jr. Conductors, do you think that you can find one way to help at your house?

**Co-Host**
Helping doesn’t have to be boring. You can make it a game. Let’s play a game with these clothes. We’ve chosen some friends to help us toss these clothes into the basket. Try to get them all in the basket while we cheer.

(Play the game, more than once, if possible.)

**Host**
That was fun. I can’t wait to hear how you help this week when you do the Big Do. Let’s practice the Big Point one more time.
