Children's Worship Update

Preschool
Today your children worked on catechism question 9, but spent time reviewing questions 1 - 9.  Today the lesson emphasized that God gives us everything we need.  They discussed different ways that God takes care of us.  
 They sang "Three in One" (tune of Frere Jacques)
God the Father, (God the Father),
God the Son, (God the Son),
God the Holy Spirit, (God the Holy Spirit),
Three in One, (Three in One).
Next week the preschool class will have an opportunity to say their catechism answers.                                                                                              

Elementary
The Elementary class had a chance to say their catechism answers today.  Please check for the catechism slip indicating the number they learned in class.  This way your child can keep track in his/her catechism booklet at home with stickers.  Children worked on learning catechism questions 41 and 42.  We discussed the word regeneration (catechism question 41) and how it is the Holy Spirit's work in our hearts.  When discussing catechism question 42,  (Who can change a sinner's heart? The Holy Spirit alone.) we talked about when the Holy Spirit regenerates our hearts he gives us the power to turn away from sin and love God. The scripture passage shared today was from Acts 9:1-31.  (Saul's Conversion and Saul in Damascus and Jerusalem)
