Sharing God’s Love on Valentine’s Day + Free Downloadable Cards
Valentine’s Day is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate love and spread joy within your community. It reminds us of the love we feel for family, friends, and loved ones, whether they are near or far.
Yet, the people we love can sometimes disappoint or hurt us, and they may not always understand us. Our love for one another can falter. Petals from flower bouquets will fall, and valentines may come and go. But the Bible assures us that God’s perfect love never fails. He won’t let us down or disappoint us, and His love carries us through even the hardest times. In Jeremiah 31:3, God tells His people:
“I have loved you with an everlasting love;
I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.”
When we read in John 3:16 about God’s amazing love for us, we are in awe:
Valentine’s Day is a perfect time to reflect on and share the wonder of God’s everlasting love!
How Your Children’s Ministry Can Show Love on Valentine’s Day
Children’s Worship Bulletins offers free downloadable materials, including activity pages and coloring pages. You can also print adorable Valentine’s Day cards for children and add personalized messages to them. Here are a few creative ways to use these resources:
- Write and Share Messages: In the weeks leading up to Valentine’s Day, invite children to write messages on cards. They can hand these out during church services, creating meaningful interactions between younger and older members of the congregation.
- Brighten Someone’s Day: Encourage children to make cards for elderly church members or those unable to attend services. Organize a short visit to deliver the cards, bringing a little extra joy to their day.
- Bake and Decorate Together: Ask for volunteers to bake cupcakes or cookies, and others to provide frosting, decorations, and packaging. Gather children to decorate the treats, then deliver them to church members who are homebound, lonely, or simply in need of a smile.
- Visit a Care Facility: Have children prepare Valentine’s Day cards for residents at a care facility. Practice a few songs about God’s love and perform them for the residents, spreading cheer and hope.
Children’s Worship Bulletins also offers love-themed Scripture verses in puzzle form. These are perfect for Sunday school, children’s church, youth groups, or church services. Great Old Testament bulletins for Valentine’s Day include Deuteronomy 11, Song of Solomon 2, Isaiah 5, and Hosea 11. New Testament bulletins include Matthew 22, John 13, 1 Corinthians 13, and 1 John 4.
We wish you a love-filled Valentine’s Day! Thank you for teaching children about God’s abiding love and the joy of sharing it with others.
With love,
The Children’s Worship Bulletins Team
