Sunday School was held for ALL students this week.
This Week in Sunday School - Theme for the Littles - Jesus Grows Up Theme for the Middles and Youth - Fruit of the Spirit - Faithfulness - Part 2 Littles - Today we read the story of the only story in the bible of Jesus as a young boy (Luke 2:41-52). He and his family make their yearly pilgrimage to Jerusalem at Passover time, and are returning home when Mary and Joseph discover that Jesus is not with them. They search frantically for him for 3 days. Finally they go to the Temple in Jerusalem, where they find him talking with the teachers. Jesus is amazed that his parents did not know that he would be “in my Father’s house.” We discussed this as the beginning of Jesus realizing that he had important work to do when he grew up. Craft/Activity - We had a maze worksheet and also made a growth chart. Middles and Youth - We continued with the second part of our lessons on the Fruit of the Spirit, Faithfulness. Last time we met we identified some synonyms for faithfulness - to be true, trust, steadfast, loyal, always there, belief. Today first we looked for examples of faithfulness described in our worship service. Then we talked about ways we recognize God’s faithfulness to us in our everyday lives as well as ways we demonstrate faithfulness. Upcoming Schedule Jan. 26 - Littles will come downstairs. Middles and Youth will stay upstairs. Feb. 2 - ALL STUDENTS will come downstairs Feb. 9 - Littles will come downstairs. Middles and Youth will stay upstairs. YOUTH GROUP MEETING AFTER WORSHIP Feb. 16 - NO SUNDAY SCHOOL Feb. 23 - Littles will come downstairs. Middles and Youth will stay upstairs.

Sunday School was held for "Littles" only this week.
This Week in Sunday School Theme for the Littles - Escape into Egypt Littles - Today we read the story of the Escape into Egypt (Matthew 12:13-23). This story follows that of the 3 Wise Men, which we read last week. In the night, God sends and angel to Joseph to warn him of Herod’s plan to kill the baby Jesus. Herod has heard him called, “The King of the Jews” and sees him as a threat to his rule. The angel advises Joseph to gather Mary and the baby and to escape into Egypt. Joseph does so, and they stay there in hiding until after the death of Herod. Craft/Activity - We had a maze worksheet, a coloring sheet, and a small coloring booklet, all illustrating today’s story.
