Instructions

Once a man named Francis who lived in Assisi wanted to show the people how much they should be thankful for the gift of life and all created things such as the moon. He used to refer to the sun, wind, air, and fire as his brothers and to the moon, stars, earth, water, and death as his sisters.  Have you ever thought of the moon as your sister? Like your sister and your self the moon changes everynight and you can watch it grow in size until it reaches a full circle. 

  • Take some time to think how like the ‘sister moon’ you are growing and changing.  Like the ‘sister moon’ sometimes you might standout as different from all the others because we are all unique.  How do you feel about this?
  • On the full circle template provided you can draw your own moon size.
  • Now, you can take some time to talk to God about how you feel about changing and growing up.
