PRESCHOOL
July 28th
This month we’re celebrating Jesus because Jesus gives me joy! It’s the kind of joy that we can have no matter what. It is a joy that lasts forever! This week they see this when they learn about the party that will never end. When we choose to be Jesus’ friend forever, the party with Jesus will last forever and ever in Heaven.
Lead Their Growth: Use bath crayons to draw sad faces with your child. Say: “Sometimes we feel sad because we have a boo-boo. But in Heaven, there will be no more boo-boos and no more sadness! In Heaven, Jesus will be our friend forever! Let’s erase the sad faces and draw happy faces, because Jesus gives us joy!”
