Tonight's family reading · Sumy
Mary Says Yes — a 5-minute devotion for Sumy families
Luke 1:26-38 · An ordinary yes to an impossible thing
An angel told a young woman in an ordinary town that she would carry the Son of God. She asked one honest question, then answered with her whole life: let it be to me as you have said.
Use this one on the Sumy weekend, when there is room for a longer conversation. Read Luke 1:26-38, talk through the question properly, then write the memory verse somewhere everyone will see it on Monday.
Memory verse
“I am the Lord's servant. May your word to me be fulfilled.”Luke 1:38
Table question
What is God asking you to say yes to this week?
30-second prayer
God, give us Mary's yes — honest questions first, then obedience. Amen.
Make it stick: draw it. Younger children draw the moment in Luke 1:26-38 they remember; older ones write one sentence about why it bothered them. Stick both on the wall.
Tomorrow: Mary visits Elizabeth (Luke 1:39-56). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
