将经文印在大卡片上。然后剪下每个字，将字面向上放在桌子上。在黑板上写下经文，然后向班级朗读经文。然后请志愿者们轮流“比赛”，一个一个把字排成正确的顺序，可以计时，也可以要求志愿者大声读经文的一部分。
故事与讨论(15分钟)
介绍：
本月我们学到了许多感谢神和人的方式。摩西和米利暗唱赞美诗来表示感激之情，而哈拿则把儿子奉献给神在圣殿中事奉。今天我们将学习保罗感谢神和他的朋友腓立比人的方式。我们将从他的榜样中学到，即使面临困难，我们也能感恩。 读 腓立比书1:1-21（保罗感谢腓立比人）
问题讨论：
1.保罗为腓立比人有多频繁地感谢神？（每次他想起他们时）
2.他如何祷告以及为什么这么祷告？（带着喜乐，因腓立比人与他同工，成为他事工的一部分）
3.保罗与腓立比人分享了什么？（神的恩典）
4.他祷告什么？（他们的爱，在充足的知识并一切的辨识上，多而又多的洋溢）
5.在写信给腓立比人时，保罗在哪里？（在监狱里）
6.他的锁链如何影响其他信徒？（他们更有动力传讲福音）
7.即使在监狱中，福音仍在增长，保罗如何回应？（喜乐）
8.保罗知道会发生什么？（他将被拯救）
9.保罗如何看待“生”和“死”？（活着意味着事奉基督，死意味着永远与祂在一起）
10.保罗如何向神和人表示感激之情？（通过祷告和书信）
结论： 保罗在监狱里写了一封感谢信给腓立比人，他通过祷告向神表示感谢。保罗教导我们，尽管面对困难，我们仍可以感谢神，因为祂仍掌管一切！因此，在我们觉得没有什么可感恩的时候，我们可以记住保罗的榜样，并相信神将继续看顾我们。
课堂活动(15分钟)
备选-课堂活动(10分钟)
应用(5分钟)
读有关因信仰而面临困难的文章。帮助孩子们明白，当我们面对试炼或因信仰受到不公对待时，神离我们很近。就像本课中的保罗和文章中的人一样，面对困难时，他们仍然可以拥有平安，甚至对神表示感恩。我们应该记住要为那些因信仰而受迫害的人祷告，感谢神的保护和带领。

THANKSGIVING SERIES
LESSON 3: PAUL WAS THANKFUL
After completing this lesson, the children will learn that we can be thankful no matter what! by Leah Pittsinger TOPICS Persecution, Prayer, Thankfulness

OPENING PRAYER AND PRAISE (5 minutes) Further info? Click here
MEMORY WORK (12 minutes) “I thank my God every time I remember you. 4In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy.” Philippians 1:3-4 NIV
Print or type the verses in big letters across a piece of card stock paper. Then cut out each word and shuffle the words, face-up, on a table. Write the verses on the board and read them to the class. Then ask for volunteers to “race” one at a time and put the words in the correct order. Time each volunteer as he or she works on the verses. You may consider asking each volunteer to read the verses out loud as part of his or her time. Continue this activity as time allows or until each child has had a chance to practice memorizing the verses.
SCRIPTURE READING AND DISCUSSION (15 minutes) 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 sacrificially gave her son over to God to serve in the temple. Today we will learn how and 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 tough situations. 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 and why? (With joy because the Philippians partnered with him and became a committed part of his ministry.) 3. What does Paul share with the Philippians? (God’s grace.) 4. What does he pray? (That their love, discernment, and “fruit of righteousness” will grow.) 5. Where is Paul as he writes to the Philippians? (In prison.) 6. How are his chains affecting other believers? (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? (Rejoicing.) 8. What does Paul know will happen? (He will be 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 despite our circumstances 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.
CLASS EXERCISE (15 minutes) Thankfulness Word Search (Puzzle) Click here
ALTERNATE CLASS EXERCISE (10 minutes) Thank You, Friend! (Game) Click here
APPLICATION (5 minutes) Read an article or short book excerpt about a missionary (or another individual) facing hard circumstances because of his or her faith. Help the children understand that God is very close to us when we face trials or when we’re mistreated because of our faith. This is how people who face hard circumstances, like Paul in the lesson and the person in the excerpt, can have peace and even be thankful to God despite what happens to them. And we should remember to pray for those who are persecuted for their faith and thank God for His protection and guidance.
