FAMILY PLUS Preschool - February 15

Hi Parents and Grandparents!

For the past several weeks I have been teaching your preschoolers in Wee Worship. They always amaze me with questions and their knowledge. Last week a kindergartener said to the group, "God and Jesus are the same!" One of his friends spoke up and said, "No, God and Jesus are not the same. Jesus is God's son!" I know sometimes we think they are not listening but I can promise you they are.  In case you don't know what Wee Worship is, Wee Worship (Sunday mornings 10:45) for ages 3-Kindergarten. Wee Worship lets preschoolers worship like preschoolers. Wee Worship will bring Bible stories to life and bring the day’s Bible truth home in ways preschoolers will understand. We sing songs that have motions to lift hearts and hands to God. I hope your preschooler can join us this Sunday.

This Sunday, February 17, 2013, your preschooler will hear this story -
Jesus Helped 10 Lepers Luke 17:11-19
Bible Story Brief -
• Jesus was traveling to Jerusalem.As He started to enter a village, He saw 10 men standing away from the city.They were sick with leprosy, a bad skin disease.They had sores all over their bodies, and they could not get close to people. If they got too close, the other people would get sick, too.
• The 10 men had heard about Jesus. When they heard that Jesus was coming near their village, they shouted to Jesus. “Help us!” they shouted. Jesus loved them and wanted to help them. He said, “Go to the priests (church leaders). Show them your arms and legs.”
• The men started walking. As they walked, they noticed that the leprosy was ... gone! All the sores on their bodies had disappeared. Jesus had healed them! It was a miracle! Jesus had healed the sick men!
• One of the men stopped walking. He turned around and ran back to Jesus. In a loud voice, the man praised and thanked God. The man knelt down in front of Jesus. “Thank You, Jesus!” the man said. Jesus replied, “Get up and go on your way.” Then Jesus said, “Were not 10 healed? Where are the other nine?” Out of the 10 lepers who were healed, only one came back and thanked Jesus.

Bible Verse -  A man saw that he was healed. Luke 17:15
Life Application - I can understand that Jesus healed people.
Bible Truth - Jesus healed sick people.
