We've seen many bad examples of what a Canadian is:
- racist,
- xenophobic,
- intolerant,
- cruel,
- self righteous,
- self centered.
Today's job is to see what a good citizen really should be.
- Christianity talks about love. Check BibleGateway.
- What is love according to the Bible?
- Who should we love according to the Bible?
- How is love shown in the Bible?
- What would this look like in our modern time?
- What would a "good" Canadian be like today?
- While he would not be racist, xenophobic, intolerant, cruel, self righteous, or self centered what positive attributes would he have?
- Using all your creativity, your imagination, and your incredible drawing skills create a drawing of what a "good" Canadian would be.
- Keep in mind what the Bible suggest are attributes of a loving person.
- When you draw this person, give him/her any necessary accessories to play his/her role/s.
- Label him/her to make sure we can see what about him/her makes him/her a "good" citizen of Canada (and, ultimately, a good citizen of God's kingdom).
- You may work in a small group of up to three that should include at least
- one boy,
- one girl
- and one other person who is presumably one of the two previously listed groups.
- One person in your group should have red hair, one black, and one blond.
- One person should be allergic to nuts, one to shellfish, and a third should be lactose intolerant.
