This is such a classical image, the basket and the lamp-stand, the light spilling out. This simple spinning craft which shows the basket being removed from the light is lovely for any age group though younger groups may benefit from the pieces being pre-cut.

Lamp-lighter-Play

 

This story about the lamp lighter or the underlying passages about lamps and lamp stands are key Christian concepts for kids to grapple with. They use a very tactile and easy to demonstrate element – light. As such all these games play on the idea of light and vision and may need a darkened environment to work fully. Please check if your teaching area can have dimmed light before selecting the best activity for your group.

Lamp Lighter (Luke 11) | Story

 

If you want the teachers page then please click on the image for the pdf.

Today’s hero is the lamp lighter, because he shows us the gift of LIGHT.

Essential Teachers notes:
This is a story rather than a biblical retelling. It is recorded that Antioch had street-lighting in the early centuries so it’s not a big jump to assume there would have been a lamp lighter. It’s also assumed that people had started to scribble down the words of Jesus before the gospels were compiled. By attaching a face to this story it makes it easier for children to relate to the central teaching it contains. It also highlights how God uses ordinary people and professions.

Main Passage : Luke 11:33-36
Alternative Passages : Luke 8:16-18, Matthew 5:14–15, Mark 4:21–25
