Jesus Heals and Forgives- Jesus is the friend who is always there for us.

  Crenshaw Kids met in the sanctuary for whole group instruction before preparing to sing in worship!    What a great time we had learning about the love of friends and our #1 friend in Jesus!   Thank you Dr. Horn for helping to lead us! We begin our lesson with the story.    If you missed it...here is a recap! We talked about friendship and how the friends of the man who was paralyzed loved him so very much to take him to Jesus!    Then we talked about what a good friend "does" and "does not" do.   Thumbs up if a good friend is kind and forgiving.   Thumbs down if a friend is a bully or gossips. Miss Alice gave everyone a treat and they had to be "paralyzed".   Arms stretched out to the side...no moving!    Now, "eat your treat".   You cannot do this if you cannot move!?   How can you get the treat?   That is right...someone has to help you.   What a fun activity to show how to be a friend when they are in need of the extra help.

Last week...Fishers of Men! This coming week...Jesus Heals and Forgives!

                                          Jesus wants you and me to fish for people, too. That means that Jesus wants us to tell others about what He has done for us and what He wants to do for them. Fishing for people is a lot like fishing for fish. First, we need to be properly equipped . We need to know what the Bible teaches and learn how to share it with others. Next, we go out where the people are and tell them about Jesus. Finally, we must be patient .  If we do these things, we can really become fishers of people like Jesus wants us to be. If you think there is a great feeling of excitement in catching a fish, just imagine how exciting it must be to bring someone to Jesus! I look forward to seeing you on Sunday! We will be meeting in the sanctuary! We sing in worship this week so we will rehearse and also hear about the friends who took their friend to Jesus. They took their friend through the ROOF! You hear me correctly! Can't wait to tell you all about it!

What a wonderful week! Ash Wednesday, Valentine's Day and learning about Nicodemus!
