"Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world." John 1:29
Good morning, dear friends!
Yesterday was our last Bible club for the month of March. Thank you so much for your prayers on our behalf. Yesterday the children heard the complete plan of salvation, many of them for the first time. There were several first time visitors as well. The Lord blessed with good attention of the kids and a good atmosphere for the club.
As usual, club begins with snack! These guys are really good eaters. Damaris made a marble cake--delicious! I know that the snack is not as important as the rest for its spiritual content, but it provides such a good start to our club, to talk with the kids and reconnect with them from the weeks before.
Today's story was about Jesus's death on the cross. The picture you see here is our "ticket to heaven," which was an origami that when opened took the form of the cross. We made the bridge from the lambs offered in the Old Testament to THE lamb of God, Jesus, who takes "away the sin of the world." At the end of the lesson, through which salvation was clearly presented, several of the children raised their hands for wanting to know more about how to receive God's gift of eternal life. It is encouraging to see the openness of the hearts of the kids.
Today's activity was a cross craft that the children were able to color and fold into a cube. It has pictures of the main stories that we have been talking about for the past weeks.
At the very end of club, we practiced our skit for Easter, which will be a program to which the children can invite their parents
Thanks so much for your prayers for us! None of this would be possible without the Lord's grace, and your prayers. See you in two weeks!
