Family Resources | Week of March 19th

This month preschoolers are learning that they can love like Jesus. This week they see this when they learn about how Jesus feeds more than 5000 people. Jesus wanted to help them by giving them food. When we take time to help others, we love like Jesus.

Lead Their Growth: While on the go, take turns listing ways you can be a helper. Talk about how Jesus helped people, like the time He fed over 5,000 people when they were hungry!

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 about Jesus’s parable of the unmerciful servant (Matthew 18:21-25). The main point was, “Forgive others because God forgives you.” 

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, “Who is someone you might need to forgive?”
