"And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him: And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying..." (Matthew 5,1-2)
Good morning, friends!This week's Bible club fell on a busy weekend. We were just finishing up our two-week winter break, so there were some kids absent, but all in all it was a good time!
We also had another first time guest. We praise the Lord for our children being willing to invite their friends and for their parents letting them come as well.
As usual, club started with snack! Today's snack was an American favorite: Rice Krispie Treats! It's so much fun introducing the French kids to American desserts! One of our kids' moms also made a chocolate chip cake that was very yummy!
Damaris taught the lesson this week. It was more of a challenge for her since she had been battling a cough all week long. This week's "mountain peak" was the Sermon on the Mount. Damaris made the bridge from Christmas and Jesus's birth to Jesus's teachings on the mount.
Damaris had the children to draw a straight line on the chalkboard to represent our best efforts to live and obey God's laws. Then, she took a ruler and held it up to the lines to show that our best efforts will never measure up to God's perfection.
Our actvity today was acting out the Golden Rule in small groups. First, the children had to act out a scene where they were not obeying the Golden Rule. Then, they replayed the same scene by acting out the Golden Rule. Here are some videos of their scenes.
Thanks so much for your prayers! See you in two weeks for our next club!
