Helping and Helpers (November 8)


Young People's Division (YPD) themed Sunday
Read the Lord's Prayer (book).

We talked about helping and helpers. This served as an introduction to the YPD work of missionaries- Missionaries are helpers- some in foreign countries, some right here at home and some right here at Bethel.

In the AME Church the youngest members of the YPD are “Sunbeams”. We talked about the attributes of Sunbeams- they are warm and make you happy.

We learned the song “Jesus wants me for a Sunbeam."

We read a story about helping from the children’s devotion book. We talked about ways we can help and made Thanksgiving cards to go along with the Thanksgiving baskets the Missionaries are preparing for needy families. We also made a card to thank Bro. Joe for all of his hard work over the years at Bethel.

The children were asked to bring a can of cranberry sauce next Sunday (Nov 15) to contribute to the Thanksgiving baskets.

Today's Ministry Staff:
Sis Jeri Robinson (leader)
Sis Sharon Beck
Sis Teresa Lamey-Reid
Sis Simone Monique Barnes

Youth helper:
Brianna

Kings Kidz Rehearsal (with Miss Jessica)
Children learned Your Love is Deep (adapted from Jami Smith's original version) which they will sing during Youth Impact Sunday on November 22, 2009.

We will also have a mini recital immediately at the end of service (for parents) on Nov 15 in the Fellowship Hall. This will give children the opportunity to sing the song they've learned before a small, friendly audience, as practice for singing the following week in the main sanctuary.

Lyrics:
Your love is Deep
Your love is High
Your love is Long
Your love is wide
(repeat 4 times)

Who can separate us?
Who can separate us from His love?
Nothing can separate us
Nothing can separate us from his love
(2x)

back to original verse repeated 4 times


NEXT WEEK (Nov 15)
Moses and 10 Commandments
