"Faith Journey: Joe Pays a Visit" by Nate Stauffer and Carol Duerksen
YOUTH GROUP LESSON 97
MATERIALS AND ADVANCE PREPARATION:
• Copies of the impromptu skit directions for participants. If possible, choose the participants prior to class and given them the directions and roles in advance. Encourage them to bring or wear something unique to their character. The role of Joe should be played by a youth leader, another adult, or a youth who can thoughtfully express some of the lessons learned in his (Joe’s) life, and this person should definitely have time prior to the session to prepare for this role.
• Bibles
• A cool jacket or other piece of apparel—something that would be a source of pride for the guys in your class. It should fit the person that will be portraying Joe.

SESSION OUTLINE
FOCUS:
Welcome students, and then say that a “special guest” will be joining the group today. His name is Joe, and he’s coming all the way from Egypt, straight out of the Bible story. Invite youth to name everything they can think of that they already know about Joseph.

EXPLORE THE BIBLE STORY:
Invite participants to “get into character.” For Joe, that means donning his jacket or other apparel. For the others, it means wearing or carrying what they brought to portray their character.
Do the impromptu skit.
