Instructions

A sail is a big piece of cloth that helps a boat ⛵ move when the wind blows. Without wind, the boat stays still. The sailor must be brave and know when to open the sail to catch the wind and go in the right direction.

  • Think of a situation in which you need to be brave to move in the right direction in your life.
  • Take a marker and write ✍️ or draw a prayer on the sail cardboard, asking God to give you the courage to make good choices and do what is right. 🙏

Il-qlugħ huwa biċċa drapp kbira li tgħin dgħajsa ⛵ tiċċaqlaq meta jonfoħ ir-riħ. Mingħajr riħ, id-dgħajsa tibqa’ wieqfa. Il-baħri jrid ikun kuraġġuż u jkun jaf meta jiftaħ il-qlugħ biex jaqbad ir-riħ u jmur fid-direzzjoni t-tajba.

  • Aħseb f’sitwazzjoni li għandek bżonn tkun kuraġġuż biex timxi fid-direzzjoni t-tajba fil-ħajja tiegħek.
  • Ħu marker, iktibha ✍️ jew pinġiha fuq il-kartun tal-qlugħ u itlob lil Alla jagħtik il-kuraġġ biex tagħmel għażliet tajbin u tagħmel dak li hu tajjeb. 🙏
