Instructions

The sailor drops the anchor ⚓ into the seabed so that the boat does not drift away with the waves. When we trust in God, we put our anchor in Him and we believe that God loves us always and He helps us stay steady even when difficulties drift us in different directions.

  • What are your hopes to keep you strong in life?
  • Take a strip of paper and on it write ✍️ or draw your praise to God for loving you as His child and helping you throughout your life.
  • Staple your prayer to create a chain, securing it to the anchor.

⚓L-Ankra żżomm id-dgħajsa soda mal-qiegħ biex ma tinġarrx mal-mewġ. Meta nittamaw u nafdaw f’Alla, Huwa jsir l-ankra tagħna, jgħinna nibqgħu  sodi fid-diffikultajiet li jitfgħuna f’direzzjonijiet differenti.

  • X’inhuma x-xewqat u t-tamiet tiegħek li jgħinuk tibqa’ sod fil-ħajja?
  • Ħu karta u fuqha ikteb ✍️ jew pinġi t-tifħir tiegħek lil Alla talli jħobbok bħala ibnu jew bintu u jgħinek fil-ħajja tiegħek.
  • Uża stapler biex tifforma katina, marbuta mal-ankra.
