Sunday School Weekly Update - April 2

Dear Families of the Children in our Sunday School Class     

           

Our lesson for the Fifth Sunday in Lent was from John 11:1-45. Mary and Martha were friends of Jesus. Their brother Lazarus had died. The sisters were sure that if Jesus had been there, Lazarus would not have died.  Mary, Martha and Jesus were very sad and cried. Jesus brought Lazarus back to life.

We shared, with each other, times we had been sad. Were there things that helped to make us happy again? If so, what were they. Are there things we can do to help someone be happy again when they are sad?  We talked about the Deacons in our church who look for ways to help make people happy, especially when they are sick and cannot come to be with our church family.

The children decided to make cards that the Deacons could bring to those people who were sick and had to stay home.

Who wouldn’t feel happy knowing our children made these great cards to show God’s love for them when they are sad.

Have a blessed week.
