FAMILY PLUS Preschool - June 21

Hi Parents and Grandparents,

 Next Wednesday night we will be watching a movie and wearing our pajamas. This will be our last Wednesday night until August. Even though we will not be having Wednesday night activities, I would love to show up at your child's event during July. Please let me know if your child is playing ball, I would love to show up at their events.


This Sunday, June 24, 2012, your preschooler will hear this story -

Daniel Chose to Do What Was Right (Daniel 1:1-20)
Bible story brief -
• Daniel and his three friends lived in Jerusalem. King Nebuchadnezzar took them and other young men to live in his palace in Babylon. The king wanted them to become some of his special helpers. They would learn a new language and other things. The king wanted them to be strong and wise.
• The king wanted them to eat and drink the same food he ate. Daniel knew that God would not want him to eat rich food from the king’s table. Daniel chose to obey God. He asked if he could have different food to eat.
• The king’s helper liked Daniel, but he was afraid. He said, “If you do not eat the king’s food, the king may think you look worse than the other young men. He would be angry with me.”
• Daniel asked the guard, “Please give my friends and me only vegetables to eat and water to drink for 10 days. After 10 days, see if we look worse than the young men who are eating the king’s food.” The guard agreed to the test.
• After 10 days, the king’s helper looked at all the young men. Daniel and his friends looked healthier than those who had eaten the king’s food. The guard agreed to let Daniel and his friends continue to eat only vegetables.
• God helped Daniel and his friends understand everything they were taught. When the learning time was over, the king talked with the young men. Daniel and his friends were the strongest and wisest ones.

Bible Verse - Do those things that are pleasing to God. 1 John 3:22
Life Application - I can do what is right.
