  • Today’s story is about a little seahorse that feels sad because he isn't like anyone else. He wants to be a turtle, an octopus or a Manta Ray and does not embrace who God made him to be.

    Below the waters of the deep blue Sea, lived Splash, a tiny seahorse. Early one morning, Splash glanced up to the waters above. It looked so pretty with the rays of the sun splashing and creating a rainbow of light below. He loved his home, but lately he had been a little unhappy.

    Hidden in the seagrass beds, he admired Ophelia, the octopus, one creature of the deep. He sighed. His heart felt sad. Why did he have to be so small? How he wished to be strong like Ophelia with her eight groovy arms, which she used to move rocks to build her den.

  • Today’s story is very special as it is written by 7 year old Zaira Lace. This story is about Little M the lion and how he learns that it's important to listen to your parents.

    Once upon a time there was a cute lion cub called Little M. He was mischievous and cheeky but lots of fun. His name was special because he was named after his dad, Mighty, the most respected lion in the waterhole. Mighty was the king. Little looked up to his dad, but it was his mum, Inkabel, that Little M adored because she took care of him and played with him every day.

    Little M lived in a cozy cave near a beautiful waterhole called ‘Shimmering Waters’. This waterhole was crystal clear and its water tasted ever so slightly of salt. It was surrounded by tangled trees and the edge was dotted with yellow daisies, but Little M’s favourite part was the sparkling waterfall. It was this very waterfall that would get Little M into very BIG trouble.

    One particular morning Little M was finishing his breakfast when he heard a familiar sound outside the cave. He ran out excitedly barely hearing his mum and dad plead for him to have fun but be careful.

    The sun was shining, the waterfall shimmering and there was his best friend Ginger growling for him to come play with her....

    ____________________________________________________________________________________________

    Today's GIGI book of the month is "Mei and Ginger: the turtle dilemma."

    This story is based on the fruit of the spirit: Self-control.

    Meiling Jade Carter is excited as she embarks on a family holiday to Turtle Cove with her parents and Ginger, her fluffy fat cat. She loves animals and wants to keep every single one she sees.

    At the island, she makes friends with the ranger’s son Lucas–who has a super adorable Cockatiel and knows so much about animals and Turtle Cove. Mei also goes on a night tour to watch turtle hatchlings make their way to the ocean.

    Mei is mesmerised and wants to keep one, but she knows she can’t. These baby turtles need the water to live.

    One night during a severe storm, Mei finds a little hatchling that didn’t quite make it to the ocean. With heart thumping and trembling fingers, she picks it up and takes it to her room. She doesn’t tell anyone that she has the little turtle, but what if it gets sick and dies? What can she do?

    You can listen to this episode and grab your audiobook at our GIGI library.

  • Today’s story is about Peter the disciple of Jesus - when an Angel miraculously breaks him free from prison.

    Peter’s heart was pounding fast, faster than it ever had before. He didn’t dare sit down, in case a rat crawled over his lap again. At least, he thought it had been a rat. It was pitch black in the prison cell, and he really couldn’t tell what creatures were in here.

    Peter inched closer to the bars of the cell door, being careful not to rattle the chains around his ankles too much. The last thing he wanted was for the mean prison guards to hear him. Reaching the cell door, he wrapped his hands around the cold metal bars. How had this happened?

    Peter thought about the terrible week he’d had. King Herod hated the church that Peter and his friends belonged to. King Herod hated that they talked about Jesus, and how they believed Jesus was the one true King. Peter hadn’t been afraid of evil King Herod. He knew that Jesus was stronger than any king on earth. But now King Herod had arrested Peter and thrown him into jail. Not only that, but he had sent so many soldiers to guard the prison. There was no way Peter could escape, and he knew it was only a matter of time before King Herod decided to do something even more evil....

  • Today's story is about a little boy called Lucas who gets invited to a birthday party that none of his friends wanted to go to.

    Here is a sneak peek

    Lining up outside his classroom, Lucas was joined by some of his friends.

    “Hey, did you get an invitation to Miguel’s party?” he asked his friend Casey.

    “Of course. The whole class got one,” said Casey. “But I’m not going!”

    “What? Why not?” asked Lucas.

    “Miguel’s weird,” said Casey.

    “But we haven’t even really talked to him!” said Lucas.

    “Well, I’m not going.” Casey decided firmly.

    “Neither am I,” said Alice, who had been listening from her place in the line. “No one really talks to Miguel. I don’t know why he invited us.”

    Lucas looked over at Miguel, who was standing by himself at the end of the line...

  • This month, we have an amazing story of a very brave woman called Harriet Tubman. She was a slave many years ago and had a sad life - however, that did not stop her from living a full life - instead she helped rescue many slaves.

    Here is a sneak peek

    A long, long time ago, in a country called the United States of America, there lived a little girl. Her name was Harriet.

    Harriet lived with her mum and dad and nine siblings. Life was very difficult for Harriet and her family. Back then, people owned other people, and forced them to do very hard jobs, all day, every day. This is called slavery, and it was very common for people like Harriet, who were born with dark skin.

    Harriet and her family lived on a large farm in a place called Maryland. Even when she was very little, Harriet was forced to do lots of chores that she didn’t want to do, and was beaten and punished badly if she didn’t do them right. On the farm, she became very strong, working with cows and animals and planting in the fields.

    But one day, something terrible happened to Harriet....

  • This month we are looking at the story of Joseph and his coat of many colours.

    You can read his story in the Bible in Genesis chapter 37 to chapter 50.

    Here is a sneak peek...

    The baker’s glared at Joseph. How dare he give me this interpretation! I don’t believe it one bit; he thought. But when he remembered the interpretations were from God and not Joseph, he realised he couldn’t be angry. He sighed heavily and soon his angry eyes changed and filled with tears. We don’t know for sure, but we can imagine Joseph putting his arm around the baker to comfort him in his last days on this earth, and perhaps he shared the good news of salvation with him, so that he could decide to follow God before he died. However it happened, we know Joseph was kind and caring and did all he could to uplift the hearts of others around him.

    Sure enough, three days later, the baker was taken out to be executed, and the butler was returned to Pharaoh’s palace.

  • This month we are looking at the story of Joseph and his coat of many colours.

    You can read his story in the Bible in Genesis chapter 37 to chapter 50.

    Here is a sneak peek...

    With his hands tied together with rope and his bare feet walking across the hot sand of the desert, he gave his life to God and prayed that the Lord would be with him as he entered the strange land.

    Upon arriving in Egypt, they sold Joseph as a slave to Potiphar, who was the captain of the pharaoh’s guards. All around him were people who lived corrupt lives; yet Joseph determined in his heart to do good for his earthly master and to work to the best of his abilities. Though the Egyptians worshipped false gods, Joseph was not afraid to show that he worshipped the God of heaven.

    Potiphar saw Joseph was diligent in all that he did, and one day, he asked, “Joseph, what is the secret to your success? I see you working hard all day, and I cannot understand what makes you work so well…”

    Here is a sneak peek...

    He finally landed sharply on his back at the bottom of the well. The impact stole his breath, and it left him winded and in pain. But there was no one there to save him. He was all alone. It took him a few moments to regather his thoughts. When he realised the sad reality of his situation, fear and despair crept into his heart, yet with his voice he cried out to God, who had always been his safe place.

    “Lord, please save me. I am so scared and alone and I am afraid I will never get out of this hole. But I know You are with me no matter where I am, and so long as I have You watching over me, I will be safe….”

    Here is a sneak peek...

    Meanwhile, Joseph had almost reached the spot where his brothers sat talking, completely unaware of their murderous scheming. He smiled as he drew closer, waving to them, but suddenly shrank back in fear as he saw his brothers slowly coming towards him with menacing looks in their eyes. As he began to turn and run, they easily chased him down and grabbed his beautiful coat, tearing the precious garment from his back. Their grimy fingernails dug painfully into his skin as they seized his arms and dragged him to an empty well close by.

    “Brothers, what are you doing?” Joseph screeched in surprise at the turn of events. “Let me go!”

    But his cries for help were unheeded as he was picked up and hurled into the dark well. It happened so fast that he hardly knew what was happening until he felt himself falling, falling, falling …

  • "When they finally reached the place called ‘Gihon’, Nathan the prophet helped Solomon get down from the donkey. All the people and Solomon’s friends crowded around him and Zadok the priest brought out a horn of oil. Solomon knelt down on his knees. Zadok poured the oil onto Solomon’s head and said, “Solomon, God has made you the new king of Israel.”

    A trumpet sounded, and all the people standing by played their instruments and sang praises to God. “God save king Solomon!”

  • Naomi wandered back to the door that led to the garden and sat on one of the wooden benches Grandpa had made. Her gumboots made a noise on the tiles as she scraped them back and forth, back and forth. Then she heard a noise. Grandma! She thought.

    It was Grandma. But to Naomi’s disappointment, Grandma wasn’t heading her way. She was walking to the front door. As Grandma opened it, Naomi could see one of the next-door neighbours standing on the front step.

    “Victor! How are you?” Naomi heard Grandma ask the neighbour.

    Oh, that’s just great, Naomi thought angrily. This is going to take forever! Naomi looked out the window at the flowers. She knew better than to go outside without her grandparents, but all she wanted to do was pick her flowers! Surely Grandma and Grandpa could talk to the neighbour some other time. After all, he lived right next door, and Naomi was only visiting for the day.

  • “Someone must go and destroy the followers of Jesus in Damascus,” one of the Jewish leaders said one day.

    “I will go,” Saul said boldly. “I will go and destroy them all.”

    Saul and a group of men got onto their horses and began the long journey to Damascus. Once they had found Jesus’ followers, Saul would take them to Jerusalem and punish them there.

    Saul and his men rode for a long time. The road to Damascus was through the desert, and they soon got tired of seeing the dry wasteland, where there was nothing green in sight. But as they got closer to the town, they began to pass beautiful grassy fields with lots of bright flowers. Cool, blue streams flowed from the mountains in the distance.

    “Look!” one of Saul’s men said. “This is much better than the desert.”

    All of a sudden, a very bright light shone down from heaven. It was so bright that Saul could no longer see where he was going! Saul fell off his horse and hit the ground with a thud. He was very sore from the fall, and he was very afraid.

  • In the very beginning, way, way back in time, before any people or animals or plants existed, the whole earth was empty and dark. Everything was still. But God saw our little planet. He had made a plan at the beginning of time to create this world, and now it was time for Him to begin His work. He spoke with a loud voice and said, “Let there be light”. Brightness suddenly filled the emptiness. God saw that the light was good, so He separated the darkness from the light He had created. He said, “The darkness will be called ‘night’, and the light will be called ‘day.’” Then there was evening and morning, and that was the first day of creation.

    God then said, “Let the sky and the waters be separated.” As soon as He said it, there was a great rushing sound. The water separated and the sky was formed. Fluffy, white clouds appeared in the air. The water began to ripple and waves formed on the ocean. And there was evening and morning, the second day of creation....
