Return to West Side Christian Church

Preschool: October 5

October 5, 2008

Today our Count Me In word was GROUP! The people on our poster remind us that God gives us our friends at church that we can talk to every week. We learned about the early church and how God’s followers lived as a family (Acts 2:42-47, 4:32-35, 5:12-16).

KEY QUESTION: Are you ready to Gather, Group, Give and Go?

ANSWER: COUNT ME IN!

After we made a cool friend mural, we headed to GreenHouse to hear our Bible story and worship God. Our new songs are so much fun to sing and we know it makes God happy when we praise him.

We dance as we sing praises to God!

Then, when we get back to our class we have a special time called Talk Time. This is where we GROUP with our friends to talk about our story and about how it applies to us! Each child has an opportunity to share. This morning our question was, “Can you name one of your friends?” Then we prayed and thanked God for our friends. This special time is our opportunity to GROUP just the way God wants us to!

We take turns listening and talking.

Afterwards, we had some yummy “friend” cookies and played another game.
Preschoolers need friendships just like adults do. Being a part of church every week can really strengthen the bonds our kids form. We hope that all of our parents will make Sunday morning a priority in their family schedule!
PARENT HELP: This week before bedtime pull out a pencil and paper. Create a list with your child of some of the friends that God has given them. Each night pray for all the friends on the list and thank God for giving us our friends!
