Twentieth Sunday of Pentecost

You Are Our Shelter from the Heavy Rain

Isaiah 25:4

Folding umbrellas were invented long after Bible times (though the people in the warm climates used parasols or sunshades), but their image as constant companions against the threat of rain wherever we go reminds us of the constant and caring presence of God.

Print the cover on green card stock, and make the umbrellas from dowels or colored drinking straws and colored (and decorated) tissue paper, sculpting the tissue to form a slight roundedness.

You may add glittering raindrops if you like.

Or you can make the bulletin board for Psalm 23.
