Crippled Woman (Luke 13) | Worksheet

 
Crippled woman
This worksheet all about the Crippled Woman’s Sabbath experience is an examination of how we can make one day different and special. It is designed for multiple age groups and best completed in small groups. The boxes ask the child to identify how their Sabbath day is different from the rest of their week, the questions examine the practice of Sabbath over the specific day, and the puzzle at the end lets them doodle and discover as they think about the story and the synagogue that the woman may have arrived at.

To complete this worksheet the children need need colouring pens, pencils or crayons.

The story of the crippled woman explores the idea of making the Sabbath a recognisable day. Inspired by the beautiful printable paper chains on allsorts I designed this simple but clear Sabbath linked activity.

Every seven – Sit in a circle (preferably on the floor) and explain that this game is about finding a Sabbath day of rest. Have a leader assign a place of work (hospital, classroom, home, garden etc) and then going round the circle the children need to call out a related action and have the group mimic it. Every seventh child shouts rest and the group lay on the floor. eg. place of work = playground, child 1 run (stand up on spot run for a few steps, group mimics), child 2 skip, child 3 play football, child 4 blow a whistle, child 5 play tag (tags person next to them), child 6 climb, child seven rest (children rest until leader calls out new location.

Today’s hero is The Crippled woman because she shows us the gift of the Sabbath

Essential Teachers notes:
The Sabbath in this story turns from a day of freedom into a day of limitation and back into a day of freedom as Jesus enters the picture. Sabbath in new testament terms can appear plainly ridiculous to youngsters today, but it’s importance is not to be ridiculed rather questioned. Discuss the difference between wrong intentionally and misguided with your youngsters, challenge older children to examine how they can keep their Sabbath a holy time. As always this story is provided as a guide, do use the idea and specifics woven into your own words.

Main Passage : Luke 13
