FAMILY PLUS Preschool - September 30

Hi Parents and Grandparents of Preschoolers,
During October, your preschooler will be learning in the 9:15 hour and Wee Worship that the Bible tells about God and Jesus. Preschoolers should begin to understand that the Bible is a special book that people use at church and home. Your child will hear the following Bible stories and Bible phrases this week:

October 2, 2011 - Jeremiah Wrote About God (Jeremiah 36:1-4,22-24,27-28,32)
God told people to write His words. Jeremiah 36:2
*Help your child realize that the Bible tells about God.

Each age group is the same this week. I have simplified the story for all ages to understand.


Bible Story - Jeremiah Wrote About God (Jeremiah 36:1-4,22-24,27-28,32)
Here is your conversation starter for this week: Provide a variety of pens and markers with paper. Invite your child to print his name or other words he or she might know. If they can't write a letter or their names, you can write it and allow them to write or scribble. Comment: “Your Bible story in Sunday School was about a man who wrote about God.” Point to the name Jeremiah on the take home page. Review the Bible story. Comment: “People wrote God’s words in the Bible.” Place the weekly take home page in a notebook for later use and keep it with your child’s books. This will allow you to go back and revisit any Bible story any time or as often as she or he would like.

Bible Story Brief:
•     God told Jeremiah how He wanted the people to live. One day God said to Jeremiah, “Get a scroll. Write all the words I have told
you.”
•     God asked Jeremiah to write down His words so that the people would never forget them.
•     Jeremiah asked his friend Baruch to write on the scroll all the words God had spoken.
•     When the scroll was written, one of the king’s helpers read it to the king. The king did not like what the Bible scroll said. He cut the scroll into pieces and threw it into the fire.
•     God told Jeremiah to get another scroll and write all the words again. Baruch helped Jeremiah write the words on the scroll. The words Jeremiah wrote are in the Bible.

Bible Truth - The Bible tells about God.
Life Application - I will realize that the Bible tells about God.
