FAMILY PLUS Preschool - March 1

Hi Parents and Grandparents,

It is so hard to believe that March is here already. Soon the flowers and trees will bloom in full color. This Sundays Bible story will be "God Created the World". I love starting this story right before spring starts. Spring is a perfect time to have conversations about God's Creation. God is the perfect artist.

Your parent challenge this week is to take a walk with your child outdoors. Say: “Do you see some things God created?” Listen as your child responds. Point out all the different colors He created. Later in the day, take time together to review the Bible story from this week. You can find the story on the take home page your child receives on Sunday or from the Bible story brief below. 

This Sunday, February 26, 2012 Your preschooler will hear this story -

God Created the World (Genesis 1:1–2:3)
Bible Story Brief - 
• In the beginning, God decided to create a beautiful world. 
•  On the first day, God said, “Let there be light.” God called the light day. Then He said, “Let the darkness be called night.” 
•  On the second day, God took some of the water on the earth and created the clouds and sky. God left the rest of the water on the earth. 
•  On the third day, God said, “Let the waters on the earth gather together, and let the dry land appear.” God called the dry land earth and the gathered water the seas. That day, God also made every kind of tree and flower. 
•  On the fourth day, God created the sun, moon, and stars. The moon and stars shone at night. The sun shone in the day. 
•  On the fifth day, God said, “Let the waters and the sky be filled with many kinds of living things.” So God created the animals of the sea and birds that fly. 
•  On the sixth day, God made all of the earth animals and crawling creatures. Then God made people! He made a man and a woman. God gave the man and the woman choices. He planned for them to care for the plants and animals. God wanted them to use and enjoy all the things He had made. At the end of the sixth day, God looked at everything He had made. He was very pleased with what He had created. 
• On the seventh day, God chose to rest from His work.
