Quiet Time is a special time that you set aside each day to read God’s Word

and get to know Him better. It is also an important part of Olympians, a

fun Bible-centered program for kids just like you in grades 1-6!

CHALLENGERS (GRADES 1-2), CONQUERORS (GRADES 3-4), and

CHAMPIONS (GRADES 5-6). Just like Olympic athletes train to be the

very best they can be, your Olympians coaches will help train you to be

the best you can be for Jesus! The goal is to please Jesus in everything

we think, say, or do!

That is what Olympians is all about!

WELCOME!

Introducing Your

Quiet Time

Hi. My name is

Mr. Marc.

A Quiet Time is a special time that you set aside each day to read God’s Word, to get to know Him better, and to learn how He wants you to live. During this time, God speaks to you through His Holy Word, the Bible, and you speak to God through prayer. What an adventure! As a Christian, spending this time everyday is very important for you to grow closer to God.

This booklet is divided into two sections: Personal Prayer Diary

where you can write prayer requests to remind yourself to pray for people that you care about and things that are happening.

Quiet Time Activity Pages where activities are written from the Bible verses for each day of the year to

challenge you to understand the truths from God’s Word.

All Word of Life Quiet Times use the same Scriptures for the week.

This makes it easier for your whole family to discuss the passages together. Here are some new friends that you will get to know this year. They will help and encourage you daily

as you spend time with God.

● Sit down at a prescribed time each day.

● Use the Bible to look up references together.

● Complete the week by documenting how

many days were completed and writing an

encouraging note.
