1. What husband-wife team were tentmakers along with Paul? 2. What did the Lord say to Paul in a vision that caused him to stay in Corinth for 18 months? 3. What can we learn from the way Priscilla and Aquila taught Review Questions Apollos?

Tent-Making Missions Paul, Aquila, and Priscilla were all tentmakers, but also continued to preach and teach. They serve as wonderful examples for us of how people can have a vocation, but continue to be missionaries right where they are. Have your children list some ways they can be missionaries in the places they normally go (school, ball teams, neighborhood, etc.). Talk to them about how you have spoken to people in normal settings about the Lord. Bonus idea: you may want to set up a tent in the backyard to do this activity, or at least set up a Minute Activity sheet in the living room made to look like a tent!
