As the kids enter the room tomorrow evening, I will have them immediately get to work finding some Scripture passages using the Bible Bookmarks (from my book The Bible Blueprint) and their bibles along with the following worksheet which you can feel free to use.

Hi Doris, as I mention above, I can’t offer page numbers since those differ from edition to edition, but here are the Bible citations:
The Ten Commandments: Exodus 20
The Building of the Temple: 1Kings 6
Psalm 23 (self-explanatory)
Daniel in the Lion’s Den: Daniel 6
The Visit of the Magi: Matthew 2
Saul’s Conversion: Acts 9
2Corinthians (self-explanatory)
The 7th Trumpet: Revelation 11: 15
Joe,
Thank you for this.
Our faith formation program has been using the Bible bookmarks for a few years now.
We present Bibles to the 6th graders, teach them how to book mark the Bible, how to “decode” Book Chapter and verse. They are enlightened and actually read passages on their own.

Charlene, I love the “decode” reference!
