Peter Raised Tabitha "Dorcas" From The Dead
Sunday School Lesson
The kids did , The Life Of Tabitha "Dorcas" Lapbook.
They learned that Tabitha, also known as Dorcas, was a woman that was
full of goodworks and almsdeeds. In scripture she was referred to as a
disciple. She sewed garments and coats for widows. Then one day she
died. Peter was sent to her and raised her back from the dead. He put
all the widows out of the room and kneeled down beside her and turned
the body toward him and said, "Tabitha Arise!" She opened her eyes and
saw Peter.
I drew pictures for them to cut out and make their little lapbook story folder for them to put in a binder. I made matching needle and thread cupcakes to go with it. There is also a coloring page, clipart picture, colored page, a sewing pattern and more to go with this. Use the pages however you need to teach your class the lesson on Peter bringing Tabitha back to life.
