What’s Up In Sunday School? - November
With their new Akaloo books in hand, the children of Old Pine have been working their way through the Bible, learning quickly many stories and lessons. As we move into November, the exciting survey of the Bible ends, and a more intensive study begins.
The Younger Children this month will begin to concentrate more on Jesus, asking themselves “Who is God’s Son?” Whether the answer is a baby or my friend, the road to Bethlehem will reveal itself. For the children in grades 1 and 2, the question of the month switches from “What does the Bible teach me?” to “What does God teach me?”. Stories and lessons of forgiveness, love, joy and peace light the way to a deepening understanding of God. And the children in grades 3 and 4 will soon start to talk about the mysterious Holy Spirit, playing games and doing fun activities that celebrate how God’s Spirit comforts and strengthens us and brings us together to form the Church.
Advent begins on the final Sunday of November. On that day we will have our first All Kids Bonus Day and rejoice that Advent is a time for us to prepare the way for God’s Kingdom. It should be an exciting day to end an exciting month. If you want to help out with Sunday School, please contact Bill Searight (bill@oldpine.org).
