Denominations

These coins developed out of the need to have Australian coins for the Offering
craft. Whole page templates of the coins are available here.
Bible Stories
- Joash - the Boy King - coins
for his treasure chest in the temple.
- The Widow's Mite - compare
values of money and discuss the difference between the size of the Widow's

- Matthew the Tax Collector
- Jesus Cleanses the Temple -

offerings or use to create props for telling the story.
- Zacchaeus - encourage
children to 'give' away their money just as Zacchaeus did.
