Description

Cast: Host, Grandma, Teen, Child, Neighbor
Ideal for: intergenerational services, kids church, community potlucks
Run time: 15 minutes
In a nutshell: interactive moment, simple props, sweet payoff

Actors: 5

Summary:
A picnic basket becomes a living altar. The Host invites each person to add a symbolic item: Grandma shares gratitude for family members; the Teen explains God’s presence in exams and late nights; the Child thanks God for ice cream and mashed potatoes; the Neighbor brings a verse card to show how God’s word frames the theme of the work. In the middle of the skit, the cast forms a mini-parade across the stage, transforming personal thanks into congregational worship.

Why your audience will love it:
It invites participation, honors every generation, and ends with a big feast of thanksgiving in spirit—even if the service ends in the lobby with cookies.
