John Baptized Jesus
Matthew 3; Mark 1; Luke 3; John 1
✝️Christ Connection: Jesus obeyed his father by being baptized. People are baptized to show they have turned away from their sins and trust in Jesus.
✝️Key Passage Phrase: The word became flesh and lived among us. John 1:14
✝️Big Picture Question: Is Jesus God or a human❓ Jesus is fully God and fully human.
✝️MOrning Lesson Craft: Create A Dove:🕊️ Each child will get half of a paper plate. Then they'll glue on googly eyes, small triangles for the beak, and white artificial feathers for the body on their paper plate🕊️ The teacher will then make a hole at the top for a ribbon to go through, so the lil ones can hang their doves up at home.🤍 As the lil ones glue, the teacher will say, "What happened when Jesus went up from the water? Yes, the heavens opened. How did the holy Spirit come down on Jesus? Yes, like a dove."
✝️Evening Lesson Game: Jesus Says:❤️ The lil ones will follow movements that the teacher says and does when she says Jesus says clap your hands, or stomp your feet, or stretch your arms, and so on...❤️After some moving around following Jesus, the teacher will say, "Who are we supposed to follow? Yes, Jesus! When people are baptized, they show they have turned away from their sins to follow Jesus.❤️
🎶I have decided to follow Jesus, I have decided to follow Jesus🎶🎶
🎶no turning back, no turning back🎶🎶
Jesus obeyed his father by getting baptized. Baptism reminds us that Jesus died and came back to life. He died for our sins. When people trust in Jesus, they should get baptized too. We hope all you dads out there had a super wonderful Father's day last Sunday🦸
God bless dad's💙
