One piece by itself doesn't show much. But when we put ALL the pieces together - WOW! We can see the whole picture! All the pieces work together to make something beautiful.
The church is like a puzzle! You are a puzzle piece. I am a puzzle piece. Mommy and Daddy are puzzle pieces. We are all different, but we all belong together!
Jesus wants us to love each other. Jesus wants us to help each other. Jesus wants us to be kind to each other. When we do that, we fit together like puzzle pieces! We show everyone how much Jesus loves us.
Sometimes people in church don't get along. That's like puzzle pieces that won't fit together. The picture doesn't look right. But Jesus wants us to love each other and work together.
