Parable of the 10 Bridesmaids (Matthew 25) | Craft 1

Those 10 bridesmaids lamps slowly ate through the oil until the light goes out, that’s what this craft shows clearly, a reminder to keep oil in our spiritual lamps.

To make this craft, you will need the 1-page template printout, scissors, a split pin, a craft knife, and you may also choose to use an awl or hole punch.

Remove the space for the flame and oil

— If you have younger kids, do this in advance if possible

Cut out both pieces.

Make a hole in each of the small black circles.

Thread the spit pin between the two layers and open on the back.

Spin the back until the oil well is full, and the candle lit.

Holding the white tab, spin the yellow tab clockwise. The oil drains away, and the flame goes out as you move it around the edge.
