The theme in Preschool for the month of May is that we can help others. On May 5th, we learned in Acts 2:42-47 that the early church helped each other. Back then, church didn't have walls and a ceiling like ours does now. Church just happened when Jesus' friends got together to remember all of the things that He did and the things that He told them. One of the most important things that Jesus talked about was that we are supposed to LOVE God and LOVE others. One of the best ways that we can love others is by helping them. So, in that early church, when someone in the church needed help, everyone got together and helped! They took food to the hungry and did all sorts of wonderful things for their friends at church.
Then, this past week, we learned from 2 Kings 4:8-17 about Elisha's Room. We learned to do what we can to help. Elisha was a good friend of God and he walked ALL over telling others about God. One day he visited a village where a rich woman lived. She invited him in for a meal, and it became a custom that when he was in town, he could stop there and eat. She and her husband even built him a special room upstairs in their house so that he would always have a comfortable place to stay when he was in town. This woman did whatever she could to help Elisha. God loves it when we show love by helping others.
