Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have a great story about Caleb, who helps his mum rescue a trapped macaw. Looking after God's creation is very important.

Here's a sneak peek:

As they drove into the forest, Caleb could hardly sit still. He loved going with his mum into nature—the quiet, the smells, the way everything felt alive.

After finding a parking spot, Caleb followed his mum along a narrow trail deep in the forest.

Mum pointed things out and quizzed him on what she had taught him.

"Do you remember what those flowers do—who they help?"

"Yep! They feed the bees."

"Good. And what about—"

A sudden screech in the distance stopped them in their tracks.

They stood still, listening.

"SQUAWK! SQUAAAWK!"

"That doesn't sound right," Mum said, already moving.

Caleb's heart started to race. What could be happening?

They hurried toward the noise, pushing through thick bushes. There, on the forest floor, was a stunning blue macaw flapping wildly. Its wing was tangled in a plastic bag, and rubbish was scattered all around it.

"Oh, no!" Caleb cried. "It's stuck!"

Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have a great story called Poison in the Soup. You can find the story in your Bible in 2 Kings 4:38-41.

Here's a sneak peek:

The pot of stew bubbled and boiled until the room filled with a scrumptious scent. The prophets looked at each other and grinned–they could not wait to eat their feast.

"It's ready!" The cook called out as he hit a wooden spoon on the table to get everyone's attention.

As the prophets eagerly gathered around the pot, their stomachs growling with anticipation, one of them took a hesitant bite. "This stew tastes... strange," he remarked, furrowing his brow in confusion.

Another prophet, noticing the unusual taste, took a closer look at his bowl. "What did you put in this stew?" he asked, his voice tinged with concern.

But before anyone could answer, another prophet cried out in alarm, "That pot of stew is deadly!" They pushed their bowls away in fear, their faces pale with shock.

"Elisha, there's death in this pot!" another young man cried. His hands shaking.

Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have a great story about Kali and Ella, two sisters who have an amazing day at a Wildlife Park!

Here's a sneak peek:

Kali grinned and shouted a big "Woohoo!" as she opened the gift from her Aunt Mia and Aunt Siena, her mother's younger sisters. "Thank you!" She stood and gave each of them a big hug.

"I can't wait to go to the wildlife park." She turned the voucher over and gasped. "I'm even getting a photo with a koala?"

Her aunts laughed. "Yes!" Aunt Mia said. "You've been talking about getting a photo with a koala for two whole years, so we asked your mum, and she said it was fine."

Kali squealed and hugged them again. "Also…" Aunt Siena smiled. "We're taking you this Sunday."

Kali clapped and cheered as she spun around the room. "Oh, wait. Is Ella coming too?"

"Definitely!" Aunt Siena exclaimed. "We can't take one niece and leave the other behind, can we?"

Kali shook her head.

Ella, who had been watching from the corner of the room, grinned and ran to hug her aunts. "Thank you," she whispered.

That week, the sisters talked about nothing but the trip to the wildlife park. Kali had been wanting to go, and since her parents didn't have the funds for it, her aunts had kindly given her this birthday surprise. Sunday couldn't come soon enough.

Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have a great story about a lady missionary called Amy Carmichael. She worked in India for many years helping children and did an orphanage so they could live free and happy. Amy's story is very inspirational!

Here's a sneak peek:

The following morning, as usual, she drank her cup of tea, enjoying the morning sunshine on her face as she prayed. Suddenly she opened her eyes as she felt the touch of a little hand on hers.

"I'm Preena," said a small voice, "and I want to live with you always."

Amy didn't know what to say. Then, looking into her deep brown eyes, full of sorrow beyond her years, she motioned for Preena to sit by her side.

Preena told Amy everything that had happened to her…how she was given to the temple as a slave, and how she tried to escape. Amy was shocked! "How many more children must be suffering like this?" she thought to herself. She resolved from that point on to help as many children as she could, and that is exactly what she did.

Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have a great story about a lady missionary called Amy Carmichael. She worked in India for many years helping children and did an orphanage so they could live free and happy. Amy's story is very inspirational!

Here's a sneak peek:

One day, Amy's whole life was turned upside down. Her father's business was forced to close. The financial stress upon him was so great that he became very ill and passed away shortly after. As the eldest of seven children, Amy dropped out of school to help her mother with the younger siblings. So, she began sharing Bible stories with them and inviting other children in the neighbourhood to listen. She also started visiting the slums where the poor people lived, yet her greatest burden was for the poor girls working in the flour mills.

They were known as the "Shawlies" since they couldn't afford to buy hats and wore shawls instead. For 14 hours a day they worked in terrible conditions and for very little pay. Amy wanted so much to bring them to her church, but she could see how unwelcome they were.

Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have an awesome story about a family who goes on holiday and sees a dolphin. And in Poppy's glitter box, you will meet Ranger Zoe, who shares amazing facts about the pink dolphin who lives in Brazil!

Here's a sneak peek of the story:

Making their way back towards the house, the family stopped when all of a sudden they heard a clicking sound coming from the water behind them. Turning around, their eyes rounded.

A sleek grey fin sliced through the water, followed by a glimmer of silver.

What was it?

Suddenly the children gasped in delight as the dolphin leapt gracefully into the air, twisting before it splashed back down.

"It's a dolphin!" they all shouted.

Baby Leo woke up with the commotion, looking towards the ocean his sleepy eyes blinking as he focused on the leaping sea creature.

Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have a great Bible story! This story tells about the prophet Elijah and how a chariot of fire transported him to heaven. You can find the story in your Bible in 2 Kings 2. Here's a sneak peek...

When they reached the edge of the Jordan river Elijah took his cloak, rolled it up, and struck the water with it. The water divided to the right and to the left, and the two of them crossed over on dry ground.

When they had crossed, Elijah said to Elisha, "Tell me, what can I do for you before I am taken from you?"

"Let me inherit a double portion of your spirit," Elisha replied.

"You have asked a difficult thing," Elijah said, "yet if you see me when I am taken from you, it will be yours—otherwise, it will not."

Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have a great story about Stompy the little elephant and a fun Easter Parade. Stompy learns all about what the true meaning of Easter is.

Here's a sneak peek:

When Stompy arrived home, she went straight to Mama Elephant, who was feeding baby elephant some mashed banana.

"Mama," she said, "Mrs. Flamingo said we have to decorate an Easter hat for the parade, and the theme is chocolate and bunnies. But I'm a bit confused about the chocolate and bunnies."

"I can definitely help you with that," Mama Elephant replied. "You see, Easter isn't about chocolates and bunnies—it's about remembering Jesus' death and resurrection."

"Oh! Can you explain it to me? Stompy asked, sitting down in front of Mama.

Mama smiled and nodded.

Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have a great story based on Mei and Ginger. You will love it! Here's a sneak peek...

Just then, the first firework shot into the sky with a boom! And burst into sparkling colours. Mesmerised, Mei's eyes widened. She began walking towards the lights, licking her cone, her mind lost in the beauty of the fireworks. She didn't notice how far she had wandered.

The ice cream truck was gone now, and her feet were tired. The people around her had changed; she didn't recognise any of the buildings. The laughter and lights seemed distant. Mei stopped. "Ginger… where are we?"

Ginger meowed softly and brushed against her leg. Mei turned one way, then another. The streets all looked the same. Her tummy filled with fear.

"Oh no," she whispered. "I'm lost." She picked up Ginger and hugged him tightly. "What am I going to do?" Her eyes filled with tears. "Jesus, please help me. I'm scared."

Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have a beautiful Bible story about a woman called Dorcas - you can find her story in the Bible in Acts 9:39-42. Here is a sneak peek....

Days passed, and Cyrus and his mother waited anxiously for Dorcas to send word that she had completed the dress. But the only news they got was that Dorcas was very sick.

"Oh, no!" Cyrus' mother sobbed. "Poor Dorcas! She has done so much to help everyone in this village; there must be something we can do to help her."

Cyrus and his mother walked through the city to Dorcas' house so that they could cheer her up with kind words and some flowers that Cyrus had picked from the garden.

When they reached the house, Cyrus saw that Dorcas' small bedroom was already crowded with local people who had come to visit her and pray for her.

Squeezing into the house, they found a spot where they could see Dorcas.

She was lying very still on her bed. Her skin was burning up with fever, and she let out a dreadful cough. Her face looked thin and pale, and Cyrus could tell that she was very sick indeed.

Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have a great story for you called "The Case of the Missing Manger." A story reminding us that Christmas is about Jesus and not the material things. Here's a sneak peek....

Sunnyhill Primary was buzzing with excitement. The scent of crayons, pine decorations, and fresh photocopy paper filled the Year 2 classroom. It was one week before Christmas, and that meant only one thing: The Christmas Assembly was nearly here!

"Alright, everyone," said Mrs Lane, clapping her hands. "Time to unpack the nativity props!"

Cheers filled the air.

Rosie bounced on her toes. "I hope the angel wings are back!" Elijah grinned. "I just hope the shepherd costumes don't itch this year." Hannah, holding her script, smiled proudly. "Well, I'm Mary. So I get to rock the baby Jesus!"

Mrs Lane gently opened a large storage box and carefully unwrapped a small, hand-carved wooden manger. Nestled inside was a cloth-wrapped baby Jesus figure with painted eyes and a peaceful smile.

"This," she said, holding it up, "is the most important part of our nativity."

The class grew quiet. Even Luca stopped fidgeting.

Mrs Lane placed the manger gently on a small table at the front of the classroom. Around it, they arranged tiny cardboard animals, some straw, and wooden figures of Mary, Joseph, and the shepherds.

"We decorate, we sing, we wear costumes," said Mrs Lane, "but remember—Jesus is the reason for Christmas. Not lights or lollies or tinsel—Jesus."

Rosie felt a warm, special feeling in her chest. She looked at the tiny baby and whispered, "You're the whole reason we're doing this."

The children spent the rest of the afternoon rehearsing. Hannah practiced rocking a pretend baby, Elijah worked on his shepherd lines, and Rosie read her narration into the microphone.

But as the sun dipped behind the schoolyard trees and the last bell rang, none of them knew what was coming.

The manger would be gone by morning.

And the Christmas mystery… would begin.

Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have a true story of God's wonderful protection - we know you will love it! Here's a sneak peek.

Life in the little shed behind the white church wasn't easy for the family. They had escaped their home country because of the war and found safety in a quiet village. But even in this peaceful place, they still faced challenges.

There was a man named Joaquín who lived nearby. He wasn't kind and often bullied the family. Every day Joaquín would yell at the family as he passed by, hurling insults and threats that made the girls tremble with fear. They even spotted him lurking in their backyard one day, though he fled before anyone could confront him. All the neighbours warned them to be careful around him.

The daughters, Maria and Sofia, were particularly afraid of Joaquín. His loud voice and angry presence haunted their thoughts, and they worried about what he might do. But their parents always reassured them, reminding them of God's protection. "Stay close," their father would say, "and trust in God. He watches over us."

Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have a story that is inspired by the parables of Jesus - you can find it in your Bibles in Matthew 13:45-46

"My pearl necklace!" Sophia cried. "I can't find it! It was in my dress-up box this morning, and now it's just NOT!"

"Take a deep breath," said Mum, "and let's have a look."

She led the way back down the hall, with a sniffly Sophia following her.

"Now," said Mum, when they were back in Sophia's room. "Where did you last have it?"

Sophia thought hard.

"Well, I was pretending that I was a big lion this morning, and the couch was my den. Remember, I pulled all the cushions off the couch to make my den cozy?"

"I remember," Mum said dryly. "What about after that?"

"After you made me put my den away, I was an eagle soaring through the sky! And I was jumping off the table, only you told me to stop that too, so then, I was a teensy little worm. Or a caterpillar. I don't really remember, but I was wriggling my way under the piano and—"

Sophia gasped.

Hey GIGI kids,

Today we have an amazing Bible story for you called "Elisha and the Invisible Army." You can find this story in your Bible in 2 Kings 6:8-23.

Night passed without a sound. But very early in the morning, Elisha's servant got up and went outside—and got the fright of his life. There were soldiers and horses and chariots everywhere!

"Elisha!" gasped the servant, running back inside. "Come, look!"

Elisha calmly went to look at the troops surrounding the city. He didn't seem upset at all!

"Oh, Master, what will we do now?" the young servant cried.

Elisha turned to his servant.

"Don't be afraid," he told his servant. "There are many more on our side than on the side of the Arameans."

Then Elisha prayed. Dear God, open the eyes of my servant and let him see.

And God opened the eyes of the servant—can you guess what he saw?

"It's getting dark," said Kate, looking up at the sky. "It'll be night soon. Should we try to come back the way we came?"

"I don't think so," said Naomi. "We might somehow end up deeper in the forest. I think we'd better just sit here and hope someone comes to look for us."

The girls slowly moved over to the tree stump and dropped their pinecones and berries. The castle didn't seem so important anymore.

Suddenly, there was a snap of twigs ahead of them.

"What-what was that?" Kate stammered.

"I don't know," Naomi whispered. Now, her heart was beating really fast. Oh, why didn't I listen to Sophie and my parents? She thought. Now we're lost in the forest, and something might be coming to eat us for dinner!

"I'm scared," Kate said, tears beginning to fill her eyes.

"Me too," said Naomi. "We shouldn't have disobeyed Sophie. All we can do now is pray."

"Let's do that, please," Kate begged.

As the sun slowly sank lower over the tree line, the girls bowed their heads and prayed for someone to come and find them, also asking forgiveness for not listening to their parents and leader.....

Today's story is found in Mark 2:1–12 "Jesus heals a paralysed man"

________________________________________________

Picking his way carefully across the roof, Caleb stopped where he thought the middle of the house would be. Kneeling down, he began to pull at the tiles of the roof, trying to lift them off. Dirt caked under his fingernails as he dug, and the midday sun was hot against his back. His arm was getting really sore, but he forced himself to keep going, knowing Asher was down below, just waiting for his chance to see…

POP!

A tile lifted up, and Caleb was so surprised it took him a moment to register his thoughts. It worked! He thought to himself gleefully, as he pulled the rest of the tile off the roof. Once the tile had been taken off, through the small square, he could see into the house.

Walking quickly but carefully back to the edge of the roof, Caleb waved his arms to get Levi and Hannah's attention.....

Today's story is about a rotten apple - but not only a rotten apple but about gossip as well.

________________________________________________

Did you hear about Anya?"

Ruth looked up from her reading book to see her friend Eliza next to her.

"What did you say?" Ruth asked.

"Shh! Keep your voice down!" Eliza whispered. "I asked if you'd heard about what Anya did."

"No? What happened?" Ruth asked.

"She cheated on the Bible quiz we had before lunch!" Eliza hissed.

Ruth was shocked. She didn't know Anya very well, but she knew Anya was one of the smartest girls in their class, and she was especially good at knowing a lot of things from the Bible. Why would she need to cheat?

"Are you sure?" Ruth asked slowly.

"I'm positive!" Eliza said. "William saw her, and he told Kalia, and she told Max, and he told Amy, and she told me."

Ruth frowned. That seemed like a very long way of hearing something.

"I just can't imagine Anya doing something like this," she said.

Just then, their friend Ella dropped into the seat next to Ruth.

"Can't imagine what?" she asked.

"Anya cheated on the Bible quiz!" Eliza whispered to her.

"No way!" Ella exclaimed.

"Shhh!" Ruth hushed both of them. "We don't know that for sure, and I don't want Anya to hear you talking about her."

Today's story is about Stompy, the little elephant and her exciting fishing trip! But one night there is a storm and Stompy is afraid!

Once in the boat, the waves were calm, and Stompy stared in awe and admiration of the vast sea. She had never been so close, surrounded by the endless ocean. As they sailed further, she spotted a few dolphins swimming by and trumpeted with joy.

Suddenly, the boat began rocking from side to side. Stompy, Uncle Bob, and Papa Elephant quickly grabbed onto a thick rope with their trunks to keep from being thrown overboard. The rocking grew stronger, and poor Stompy started feeling seasick. She sobbed, scared, and called out for Papa Elephant to help her.

Uncle Bob chuckled and said, "Hey, Kiddo, this is normal! I'm used to the rocking of the boat."

"But… but…," Stompy tried to speak, but the boat kept swaying, and she couldn't steady herself.

Papa Elephant gently pulled Stompy close and said, "Let me tell you a Bible story, Stompy. Did you know that once, Jesus commanded the sea to be quiet?"

"Really?" Stompy replied, wide-eyed.

Today's story you can find in the Bible and it's about the prophet Jeremiah. You can find his story in Jeremiah 38.

Jeremiah's heart pounded in his chest. He had just delivered God's message to the people, warning them to turn back to the Lord or face destruction.

But the people didn't want to hear it. The rulers of the city, feeling threatened by his words, decided they had heard enough of Jeremiah's warnings.

"We can't let him keep speaking like this," one of the officials said angrily. "He needs to be silenced!" So they captured him – they wanted him gone!

The officials grabbed him roughly and they dragged him toward an old, dark pit in the courtyard, used long ago to store water but now filled with only mud at the bottom.

The pit loomed before him, deep and dark, and Jeremiah could feel fear rising inside him.

Poppy and Esther are on an amazing train ride on their way to an adventure - join them as Esther tells the story of a boy who steals a toy train! Will he get caught?

Jack took a deep breath. It was now or never. He grabbed his backpack, ran into Leo's room, and stuffed the train and the tracks into his backpack as quick as he could. Struggling with his now very heavy backpack, Jack closed Leo's door again and hustled down the steps.

Leo was already buckled into the car and Dad was waiting outside to strap Jack in. Taking Jack's backpack, Dad looked surprise.

"Whoa! What are you taking to school today, buddy? Rocks?" he joked.

Jack laughed, but it sounded forced, even to him. The whole time he was thinking, Please don't open the backpack, please don't open the backpack....
