Workshop Lesson 11
The Lord's Prayer - The Our Father

Memory Verse

"We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God’s will." - Romans 8:26b-27

Terms to help us understand:

God as Father

Hallowed

God's Kingdom

God's Will



Student Thought Time

  1. What are eight qualities you think an ideal parent would have?

  2. How does God exhibit the qualities listed above?

  3. How can we keep God’s name holy?

  4. What does “thy kingdom come” mean to you?

  5. What is one thing you could do to bring God’s kingdom closer to your family?

  6. What do you think God’s will is for your least favorite person on earth? For you?

  7. What does “daily bread” have to do with wants and needs?

  8. What does “forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us” have to say about grudges?

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

Assignment for the week of January 26, 2005

  • You will need a spiral notebook or three-ring binder specifically to save each Lesson’s assignment and the work accomplished. Your guide may ask to see the work at any time.

  • Faith Story focus for this week:

    • Write some thoughts about this quotation: The tragedy of our day is not unanswered prayer, but unoffered prayer.

  • Attend weekly worship. Fill out the Worship Notes (available in the narthex) and return them to Nancy Schuett when completed.

Your Faith Story

  At the conclusion of this year, you have the opportunity to compose and share your faith story. Your faith life has been influenced by parents, family, friends, mentors, Sunday School classes, youth group experiences, etc. Take some time over this coming year to write about how these faith life experiences have affected you and your faith. Each week you will be given a thought to think and write about. Write a paragraph and keep it in your spiral notebook or three-ring binder. Each thought will guide you in eventually writing your faith story in February. Show Nancy at least monthly that you are accomplishing these assignments.
