1. The document provides instructions for making flannelgraph pieces to tell the Bible story from Luke 5:4-7 about Jesus helping the disciples catch a huge amount of fish.

Directions are given for assembling a boat piece with sail, mast, and rigging, as well as land and water scenery pieces to accompany the story. 3. A brief retelling of the story is included, where Jesus tells tired fishermen to cast their nets again in deep water, which results in more fish than their boats can hold through a miracle.

Instruction to make the boat: 2. Put a thin layer of glue all around the hull of the boat, except on top, then glue onto the other part. Leave the top unglued so that you can insert the characters into the boat when relating the story. 1. Glue the sail and the mast together. Then add some rigging with string (see the sample picture above). Instruction to assemble the land and water scenery: When presenting the flannelgraph story, place both part of the scenery side by side on the board to make them longer. 7
Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee and saw fishermen washing their nets on the beach. “Sail your boat out into deep water,” Jesus told them. “And then throw out your fishing nets.” Simon, one of the fishermen, looked at Jesus with tired eyes and said, “Master, we have been fishing all night long.” “We didn’t catch any fish! Not even one!” However, the fishermen decided to do as Jesus said, and they went out to sea again. When they were in the deep water, they cast their nets once again. By a miracle, their nets filled up with so many fish that the nets almost broke. The fishermen called to their friends in another boat. “Come, give us a hand!” Soon both boats were full of fish! The men sailed back to shore with plenty of fish to sell at the market. What a wonderful thing Jesus had done! 8 Written and illustrated by Didier Martin.
