After watching the story we read the story from the Children’s Bible and then we reflected upon its meaning.

Ishpreet: Don’t be scared.
The disciples felt scared – what are things that scare us?
Laura: Scary creatures
Jordan: Being in high places
Adum: Bugs

Hendrix: When I hear at noise
Noah: A storm and thunder.
Bior: I am scared in a storm at night time when I am sleeping.

When we are afraid who helps us:
Harper: God will always be there.
Hendrix:Tell you parents that you are scared and then they can help you solve the problem.
Elnathan: My parent and God because they help me.
The children then reflected upon their understandings using words and pictures.
