FAMILY PLUS Preschool "Rules" - June 13

Hi Parents & Grandparents!
This Sunday is Father's day. Just a reminder that Sunday we will not have any adult groups meeting. For your preschooler we will have Wee Worship and Wee Care during the one service at 10:30.
We have had a great week of Summer Jam learning about "God's Big Story!" God's big story tells us about God's BIG love for us all.
To help your preschooler with this week's story, review the rules you have in your home. Talk about why you have those rules. Explain that God gave rules to people for the same reasons—so they would be safe and happy. Help your child come up with some special rules that apply only to him.

This Sunday, June 16, 2013, Your preschooler will hear this story - God Gave the Ten Commandments Exodus 19:1–20:20
Bible Story Brief -
• Moses led the people of Israel out of Egypt. They camped at the bottom of a mountain. Moses went up the mountain. God said, “Remind the people how I have helped them. Tell them I want them to obey Me. I am coming in a cloud to speak to you. The people will see the cloud and hear Me speak to you. Tell them to wash their clothes and not to touch the mountain.” Moses told the people what God had said. They replied, “We will do what God tells us to do.”
• On the third day, there was thunder and lightning, a thick cloud appeared, and a loud trumpet sounded. The people were afraid. They gathered at the bottom of the mountain. Moses went up the mountain to talk to God again. God wanted the people to know what they should do to obey Him. God told Moses and the people to obey these ten special rules, or Commandments.
– Do not worship anyone but God. God is the only God. – Do not worship anything you have made. – Always say God’s name in a respectful way. – Work on six days. On the seventh day, rest and worship God. – Honor and respect your father and mother.
– Do not kill anyone. – Husbands and wives should keep their wedding promises to each other. – Do not take something that belongs to someone else. – Do not tell lies about other people. Always tell the truth. – Do not wish for things that belong to other people.
Life Application -  I can begin to understand why God gives us rules.
Bible Truth - God gave us rules because He loves us.
Bible Verse -  Do what God says. Deuteronomy 5:32
