October 31: Joseph and Love

Joseph's Colorful Robe

Bro Justice and Sis Waetie Sanaa Kumahia joined us for praise and worship, then read the story of Joseph and his colorful robe.

Keeping with our monthly theme of LOVE (one fruit of the Spirit), kids learned about how much Joseph's father loved him and the amazing gift that he received (a colorful robe). They also discussed how unloving his brothers were towards him (throwing him into a hole, selling him into slavery), yet Joseph was loving to them. We discussed how to be loving with siblings.

They gave examples of loving things they do in real life:

• feed the cat
• give hugs
• be nice
• ask how someone's day day is
• give gifts

For activity time, paper bags were transformed into colorful robes.

Apples (our fruit theme for October) and goldfish crackers for snack.

King's Kidz rehearsed Hallelujah (track 9 on the practice CD) to be sung on Nov 21.

Kids received banks to use at home (for offering, savings, etc). Extras are in the Parent Room in the sanctuary.
