| In the parable of the Vineyard owner the men collect the grapes and that’s as simple as this craft linking idea is. It’s wonderfully open ended. Fill your bunch of grapes with coins that the men will be paid, scrunch tissue paper, dab paint, use glass beads or sequins, or anything you have on hand. |  |
Here are the images you need for the hero’s attributes linked to Parable of the Vineyard Owner (Matthew 20).
Each hero set contains a high quality graphic of the character, a take home bible card and a colouring page.

| In the parable of the Vineyard owner each man receives a single coin, a danarii, a days wage. Alone it seemed insignificant but when the men in the parable compared their wages they saw the level of unfairness. This craft gathers all those coins, each equal, and puts them together to represent something much bigger. This craft is simple but a little time consuming. |  |
Within the parable of the vineyard owner there are two distinct themes you can pull out for games, that of the grape gathers task and that of the fairness of the wages, I’ve tried to give you a selection of games to represent both and that can also suit a variety of setups and spaces.
Grape toss – basically a beanbag toss game. You can use grapes or other small items and you need to toss them into various containers. For one child have them try and reach every container, for groups have each group assigned a different container to fill.

Today’s hero is The Vineyard Owner because he shows us the gift of Order
Essential Teachers notes:
Jesus was a storyteller and this powerful small story goes against the grain of so much that is taught to kids. It doesn’t matter how many followers or likes you can score, Jesus will love you the same, it doesn’t matter how many bible verses you can recite or how much muck your sin has created God’s going to take you in as his chosen child.
