Description
The Lost Sheep Sunday School Bundle is a printable Bible lesson resource based on Jesus’ Parable of the Lost Sheep in Luke 15:1–7. It is designed to help children explore why the shepherd leaves the ninety-nine sheep to search for the one that is lost, and what Jesus teaches us through this story about God’s love, repentance, and the value of every person.
Instead of preparing several separate activities for your lesson, this bundle gives Sunday School teachers, children’s ministry volunteers, and homeschool parents a coordinated collection of Lost Sheep printables that can be used together or individually.

Teaching the Parable of the Lost Sheep
In Luke 15, Jesus tells the story of a shepherd who has one hundred sheep. When one sheep becomes lost, the shepherd leaves the ninety-nine and searches for it until he finds it. He then joyfully carries the sheep home and celebrates its return.
The story provides a simple but powerful way to talk with children about several important biblical ideas:
- God knows and cares about each person.
- Every person is valuable to God.
- God seeks those who are lost.
- Repentance brings joy in heaven.
- Jesus welcomes people who turn back to God.
- God’s love is personal, patient, and persistent.
These Lost Sheep activities can help children move beyond simply remembering the events of the parable and begin thinking about why Jesus told the story and what it teaches about God’s character.
Learning Ideas for Your Sunday School Lesson
Begin by reading Luke 15:1–7 together or retelling the story in language appropriate for your class.
You might ask children:
Why did the shepherd search for one sheep when he still had ninety-nine?
How do you think the lost sheep felt when the shepherd found it?
Why did the shepherd celebrate?
What does Jesus want us to understand about God through this story?
After discussing the Bible story, use the activities in this bundle to review important characters, objects, events, and teaching points from the parable.
For younger children, you can focus on the simple truth that God knows us, loves us, and cares when we are lost. Older children can explore the connection between the lost sheep, repentance, forgiveness, and the joy described by Jesus in Luke 15:7.
Ways to Use the Printable Activities
The bundle can be adapted for different teaching situations.
Use it for:
- A complete Parable of the Lost Sheep Sunday School lesson

A Ready-to-Use Resource for Busy Bible Teachers

This Lost Sheep bundle brings the resources together around one cohesive theme so you can spend less time searching for activities and more time teaching.
The printable format also makes it easy to keep the files and reuse them whenever you teach the Parable of the Lost Sheep again.
