Family Resources | Week of March 12th

This month preschoolers are learning that they can love like Jesus. This week they see this when they learn about how Jesus healed a woman who was sick for twelve years. Her body was healed, but the woman also got to experience the kind words of Jesus. Kindness is powerful. When we are kind, we love like Jesus.

Lead Their Growth: When you go into your child’s room, say: “Good morning, [child’s name]! Let’s make today a KIND day, and be kind like Jesus.”

This month elementary students are learning about forgiveness, which is deciding that someone who has wronged you doesn’t have to pay.  This week, we learned how Zacchaeus changed his life when Jesus forgave him (Luke 19:1-10). The main point was, “When you forgive others, it can change them.” 

Monthly Verse: “Put up with one another. Forgive one another if you are holding something against someone. Forgive, just as the Lord forgave you.” - Colossians 3:13 (NIrV)

Lead Their Growth: Ask your child, “Why do you think forgiveness can change someone?”
