Dear Kids Zone Families,
Our memory verse for this week will be John 9:5 and is as follows: "While I am in the world, I AM the light of the world."
Jesus spoke these words to a man born blind who had never
before even seen light, only perhaps felt warmth from the sun on his
skin. Jesus gives the man sight as a way of explaining his purpose in
the world, to show us the truth. In the lesson, we will be teaching
the children two things: That if we believe in Jesus we will be shown
even more truth by Him but if we reject Him we cannot learn the truth.
We are all like the man born blind in that we are
born not knowing God or the truth. In order to know the truth we must
first come to know God Himself. Thank you for partnering with us to
help teach your children the truth about Christ!
The take home activity this week is an interesting
one to help reinforce the memory verse. We will be making light switch
covers with the memory verses on them in class. The children can take
them home to put on a light switch they use at home to remind them
about the memory verse. Please help them to remember this and take a
minute to recite the verse with them!
Have a blessed week,
Nancy and Severn
