God's Love

This Sunday, we learned that God's love is SO deep and SO wide that it cannot be measured. We learned all about measuring by using a tape to measure many different things in the room. Each of the kids took a try at jumping as high as they could and we marked it on paper. We also decorated our own rules with stickers.

During our Bible story, we learned that God is like a shepherd. One sheep got lost, but the shepherd loved the sheep so much that he searched and searched until he found the sheep and brought him back to the heard. This is how much God loves us. Even when we get lost, God loves us so much that he searches for us and brings us back.

Our verse this week is Ephesians 3:18 - "How wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ."

This week, if you want to continue learn about sheep and measuring, you can make a sheep pen with masking tape on the floor and scatter cotton balls around the room. Then, you can round up all of the lost "sheep" and put them back into the pen while you talk about how much God loves them.

You can also take out the kitchen measuring spoons and measure water out into a measuring cup.

See you next Sunday!!
