Pumpkin Palooza is a 4-lesson children's ministry curriculum that celebrates God's creation and His abundant blessings during the fall season. Through engaging activities, pumpkin-themed games, and diverse learning experiences, children aged 6-12 will explore key Bible stories about creation, growth, gratitude, and God's plan for redemption.
Main Idea: The pumpkin's journey from seed to harvest mirrors God's plan for creation, growth, and redemption in our lives, celebrating our unique gifts and God's unconditional love.

By believing in Jesus, we experience growth in faith, learn to be thankful in all circumstances, and join in God's plan to share His love with others, regardless of our backgrounds or challenges.
