Friendzy Lent Resources

friendzy Lent resources

Lent is a time when we engage in prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. It's a solemn but joyful time!

 

What a gift it is to practice our faith in the very same buildings our students learn and grow in every day. As teachers, we have the opportunity to help our students connect with Jesus through prayer, worship, and Scripture. 

As we start our Lenten journey, we begin a season of renewing and deepening our faith. Lent is a time when we engage in prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. It's a solemn but joyful time! As we embrace the suffering of Jesus' crucifixion, we know that it leads to the joy of His resurrection. 

We hope you enjoy using these Lenten resources with your students this season!

 
 
 

STRENGTHEN OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD:

Friendzy Prayer Cube Printable

This activity will create space for students to spend time in prayer during Lent intentionally.

  • Invite students to cut out the downloadable template.

  • Have students fill in all sides of the cube with people or things they can pray for during Lent.

  • Once students have filled out the cube, have them fold and glue it together following the template outline.

  • Invite students to roll the cube daily and pray for the person or thing they rolled on.

For younger students: If you prefer making one Prayer Cube for the whole class, invite your students to help you fill out each side with their ideas. As a class, roll the cube and offer up prayer intentions together.
