Jesus Can Help Our Friends

This week we learned that Jesus can help our friends and we learned about the four friends in Mark 2:1-12. We made friendship bracelets and had LOTS of fun building together with blocks, lincoln legos, and foam puzzle pieces. We also talked all about our friends and what we like to do with our friends.

Just like the man's friends lowered him down on a blanket to Jesus, we took a swim towel and pretended that it was the mat. We took turns laying on the mat and the volunteers carrying them around the room.

We also went over last week's lesson about Jesus healing the blind man while we looked through the beans to find googly eyes.

Have a GREAT week, and we will see you on Sunday!

God Can Heal Us

March 8th, we learned that God helps us. He can heal us like He did with the blind man. We looked for googly eyes in the beans, and we looked in the mirror to see what eye color we all had. The kids made funny faces in the playdough with googly eyes.

We sang "I Am a Friend of God" with all of the sign language motions. We may just have some little worship leaders in the making!!

As always, we repeated our 3 main truths: God made me, God loves me, and Jesus wants to be my friend forever. Ask your child if they can remember the motions!

We found the prayer spot and prayed at it and said the memory verse with our eyes closed so that we could wonder what it was like for the blind man.

Most of all, we laughed and giggled and had a great time with Jesus. Ask your child what Jesus is making in heaven for them.
