Psalm 23 and Dancing like David (Sunday, May 23)

We had a slight change of venue, meeting up the hill at the Match School.

Today's lesson focused on the David the children learned about the week before who also wrote beautiful songs and poetry (like Psalm 23), and he praised danced before the Lord.

And we also had three special guests at Children's Worship today:

Asha Ragin, from Bethel Expressions (dance ministry) who led the children in liturgical dance inspired by

• Fred Hammond's When the Spirit of the Lord
• Sweet Honey in the Rock's Play Your Harp Little David

and

Guest readers Robert and Jessica Anderson who read Tim Ladwig's illustrated version of Psalm Twenty-Three. Kids asked questions and viewed the contemporary illustrations, exploring ideas like safe places, scary situations, loved ones, and a God who is always with them.

During King's Kidz rehearsal, Jessica Huber continued teaching the song Come and Make My Heart Your Home which they will sing on Sunday, June 27, during Graduation Sunday.
