Daniel 10:10-14; 12:1-3
Script
Pastor: Good morning boys and girls! Welcome! Let’s say good morning to our
friend Sammy and see if she is there. Ready? One, two, three: Good morning,
Sammy!
Sammy: Good morning, everyone!
Pastor: Today is a special day.
Sammy: Yes! It’s Sunday! We are here to worship God!
Pastor: That’s true, Sammy. But today is also a feast day.
Sammy: That’s perfect! I love food! What’s for lunch?
Pastor: No, Sammy, not that kind of a feast day.
Sammy: What do you mean?
Pastor: Today is the feast day of St. Michael and All Angels.
Sammy: Ooo! What’s that?
Pastor: It’s a special day during our church year where we honor St. Michael the
Archangel and all of the angels of the Bible.
Sammy: Angels have names?
Pastor: Yes, and they have special jobs.
Sammy: What’s Michael’s job?
Pastor: Michael is a warrior. He goes to battle at the command of God, and he
fights armies we cannot see.
Sammy: Woah. You mean there was a battle going on in the Bible that people
couldn’t see?
Pastor: Yes—there are even battles today that we cannot see. Spiritual warfare
happens and we may not even realize that Michael is fighting with the angels to
protect us from harm. God loves us so much, and he commands his angels to
protect believers.
Sammy: I love that even when I am sleeping, there is a whole army to protect me.
Pastor: Yes there is. Let’s pray. Can everyone please fold your hands and bow
your heads and repeat after me? Dear Jesus, thank you for your great love. Thank
you for angels like Michael. Thank you for protection from harm. We love you.
Amen.
Sammy: Bye, everyone!
