John the Baptist

Use this word search after you teach John the Baptist (Matthew 3; Luke 3; John 1). Words run across and down only, so beginning readers can do it too.

The story: John lived in the wilderness, ate locusts and wild honey, and told people to turn from their sins because the Savior was coming. When he saw Jesus, he said, "Behold the Lamb of God!"

Talk about it: Big idea: Pointing others to Jesus, Repentance. Which word from the puzzle reminds you most of the story?
