God Loves Everyone

This week we talked about our friends.

We talked about how to be nice to everyone and to love everyone and always be nice to our
friends.

In our story, Jesus was going on a long trip when he and his friends stopped by a well to get a drink of water. There was a lady at the well and Jesus asked her for a drink. The lady did not know Jesus or who he was and she did not normally speak to people like Jesus but Jesus showed her how to be nice and how to love everybody. Jesus got a drink of water but the lady got a new friend.

In our activity we coloured in a piece of paper that said "You're my friend". We wrote the name of one of our friends underneath it and then glued it onto a cup so that we could give it to them and be nice friends to everyone.

We practiced our Memory Verse;
"love one another" John 15:12

Where will the Traveling Train take us next week?!

I Show God's Love

This week we talked about showing God's love.

We talked about ways that we can show love to each other. We can show love by;
-Giving someone a hug
-Patting someone on the back
-Saying I love you
-Shaking hands
-Blowing kisses
-Waving hello
-Smiling
-Giving someone a high five
-Putting our arms around someone

There was a big new poster on the wall with lots of different faces on it. There were smiling faces, sad faces, angry faces, hurt faces, sick faces and tired faces. We looked at all the faces and thought about how we could show our love and what we could do to make every face happy again!

Because we were talking about love, our special snack was fairy bread in love heart shapes! It was very yummy!!

We practiced out Memory Verse;
"love one another" John 15:12

God Loves Me


In our lesson this week we learned about Children.

In our story, Jesus was talking to a BIG group of people in the market place and all the little children (just like our friends in Sunday School) ran up to meet him and to listen to what he was saying. But some of Jesus' friends told all the little children to go away! They said that children should not be near Jesus, because he needed to talk to the older people. Sometimes big people get so busy that they forget what is important. But not Jesus! Jesus told his friends to get out of the way so all the little children could com around him. "Little children are the best at loving God" Jesus told them, and after all Jesus' friends were sorry they did not let the children see Jesus. This story helped us to know that Jesus loves all the children of the world, and he especially loves us! For our first activity we got to draw on a big love heart pictures of who we love! It was so much fun and all the pictures looked great!

Then we practiced our Memory Verse;

"Love one another" John 15:12
