经节(5分钟)
“我每逢想念你们，就感谢我的神。” -腓立比书 1:3
在卡纸上打印经文的各个字。在白板上写下经文并向班级朗读。然后给每个孩子1-2张纸，要班级一起合作，通过与白板上的字顺序匹配来排列这些字。然后再次朗读这段经文。如果时间允许，重复此活动。
故事(15分钟)
让孩子们坐在你面前的地板上，在朗读经文时为他们补充图片，以便孩子们更容易理解，如有必要，可以用儿童圣经。
介绍：
本月我们学到了向神和他人表达感激之情的许多方法。摩西和米利暗唱赞美诗表达他们的感激之情，而哈拿把儿子奉献给神在圣殿中服事。今天我们将学习为什么保罗对神和他的朋友腓立比人心存感恩。我们将从他的榜样中学到，即使面对困境，我们也能心存感恩。
读 腓立比书 1:1-21（保罗为腓立比人感恩）
讨论问题：
1.保罗多久为腓立比人感谢一次神？（每当他想起他们）
2.他如何祷告？（怀着喜乐！）
3.保罗与腓立比人分享了什么？（神的爱和恩典）
4.他祷告什么？（他们的爱会增长）
5.在给腓立比人写信时，保罗身在何处？（在狱里）
6.保罗被不公正的对待如何影响了他的朋友们？（他们更有动力传道！）
7.面对福音的增长，尽管身在狱中，保罗的反应是什么？（幸福/欢喜）
8.保罗知道会发生什么？（他将得拯救）
9.保罗眼中“生”和“死”是什么？（活着意味着事奉基督，死了意味着与祂永远同在）
10.保罗如何向神和他人表达感激之情？（通过祷告和信件）
保罗在监狱里写了一封感恩信给腓立比人，通过祷告向神表达了感恩之情。保罗教导我们，无论面对何种困境，我们都可以时刻感恩神，因为祂仍掌控着一切！因此，在我们觉得没有什么可感激的时候，我们可以想起保罗的榜样，并相信神将继续看顾我们。

BIBLE VERSE (5 minutes)
“I thank my God every time I remember you.” Philippians 1:3 NIV
Print or type each word of the verse on a piece of card stock paper. Write the verse on the board and read it to the class. Then give each child 1-2 papers and ask the class to work together to put the words in the correct order by matching the word order on the white board. Then read the verse again. If time allows, you may repeat the activity by giving the children different words.
BIBLE STORY (15 minutes)
Ask the children to sit on the floor in front of you while you read the scripture. If necessary, use a children’s bible and supplement the story with pictures so it will be easier for the children to understand.Introduction: This month we have learned that there are many ways to show thankfulness to God and others. Moses and Miriam sang songs of praise to show their thankfulness, while Hannah gave her son to God to serve in the temple. Today we will learn why Paul was thankful to God and his friends, the Philippians. And we will learn from his example that we can be thankful even when we face hard things.
Read Philippians 1:1-21 (Paul is thankful for the Philippians.)
Discussion Questions:
1. How often does Paul thank God for the Philippians? (Every time he remembers them.)
2. How does he pray? (With joy!)
3. What does Paul share with the Philippians? (God’s love and grace.)
4. What does he pray? (That their love will grow.)
5. Where is Paul as he writes to the Philippians? (In prison/jail.)
6. How is Paul’s unfair treatment affecting his friends? (They are motivated to preach even more!)
7. What is Paul’s response to the growth of the gospel even while he is in prison? (Happiness/rejoicing.)
8. What does Paul know will happen? (He will be saved/delivered.)
9. What is “life” and “death” to Paul? (Living means serving Christ, and death means being with Him for all eternity.)
10. How does Paul show thankfulness to God and others? (Through prayers and letters.)
Conclusion: Paul wrote a letter of thankfulness to the Philippians while he was in prison, and he showed thankfulness to God through prayer. Paul teaches us that we can always be thankful to God no matter what we face because He is still in control! So, during times when we don’t feel like there’s anything to be thankful for, we can remember Paul’s example and trust that God will continue taking care of us too.
