FAMILY PLUS Preschool "Talk About Jesus" - August 1

Hi Parents & Grandparents!

We have two events that you don't want to miss. The first event is Illuminate, this Sunday, August 4th. In both services. The New Generations team will be sharing stories and outcomes from many of our 2013 events.
The second event is Back to School Bash, Wednesday, August 7th 5:45-7:45. We will have a blast rotating between inflatables, an illusionist, and food (includes hot dogs, chips and more). As always, your children will need to get their security sticker and meet in the regular classrooms to start the evening.

This week to help bring the story home, encourage your child to invite a friend to spend Saturday night at your house and attend church with you on Sunday. Explain to her that Jesus wants us to tell others about Him.

This Sunday, August 4, 2013, Your preschooler will hear this story -

Paul and Barnabas Told About Jesus   Acts 13:1-5,13-16,32-33,42-51; 14:1-3, 6-7, 21-28
Bible Story Brief -
• Paul and Barnabas were teaching in the church at Antioch. One day when Paul and Barnabas and other teachers were worshiping God, God told them all that He wanted Paul and Barnabas to travel to other towns to tell people about Jesus. The teachers prayed for Paul and Barnabas and sent them off to be missionaries.
• Paul and Barnabas traveled to many places and taught people about Jesus. In one town they went to a synagogue and heard someone read from the Bible scroll. Paul taught the men more about God and Jesus. The people invited them to come back the next week and teach more about Jesus.
• During the week, people followed Paul and Barnabas to learn more about Jesus. The next week a large crowd of people came to hear them teach at the synagogue. Some of the leaders did not want them to teach the people. They said unkind things about Paul and Barnabas.
• Paul and Barnabas said, “We will tell everyone about Jesus. God wants all people to know that He sent His Son, Jesus.” Some people were happy to hear about Jesus. They told others the good news about Jesus.
• Paul and Barnabas traveled to many towns. They helped many people learn about Jesus. They helped people begin to meet together in churches to learn more about Jesus. Later, they traveled back to Antioch and told the church about all of the people who had learned about Jesus.
Life Application - I can show love to others by telling about Jesus.
