Flat Jesus Summer 2014

Flat Jesus Costa Rica

Flat Jesus is a Family Ministry take-along summer project based on the popular “Flat Stanley” book series. As we thought about children’s education in the summer, we said, “If families could see Jesus traveling with them during the summer how would they react?” And so was born our take-along companion, Flat Jesus.

Flat Jesus is a paper figure that all families and children can cut out and color. He can accompany them on their Flat Jesustravels this summer. Then families with or without children at home can photograph and document their adventures at various locations. Then, bring in or mail your photos and stories to the Church where we will display them in the Commons area on Education Sunday, September 7, 2014. Prizes will be awarded in several categories (i.e. best outfit, best travel story, furthest distance traveled, etc.). We will be following Flat Jesus on Facebook, too, so feel free to post your pictures and stories to Chapel's Facebook page as well! As we remember that the Real Jesus is with us wherever we go, take Flat Jesus along as a witness to your faith as you travel His creation, see family, friends and witness His love this summer.
