If you walked by the 1st through 3rd class this Sunday, you heard us closing the class with the songs Away in a Manger and We Wish You a Merry Christmas.
The class was reminded that Christmas time is not a celebration of December or winter.
It is about the birth of Jesus Christ.
I love how The Jesus Storybook Bible connects the Old and New Testaments.
He's here!
Everything was ready. The moment God had been waiting for was here at last! God was coming to help his people, just as he promised in the beginning.
But how would he come? What would he be like? What would he do?
Mountains would have bowed down. Seas would have roared. Trees would have clapped their hands. But the earth held its breath. As silent as snow falling, he came in. And when no one was looking, in the darkness, he came.This past Sunday, the kids looked at the birth of Jesus Christ in Matthew 1.
This upcoming Sunday, the kids will look at the worship of Jesus Christ in Matthew 2.
The younger children are memorizing Luke 2:11 this month:
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.The 1st through 5th graders are memorizing Luke 2:10, 11 the first two weeks of September:
And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
