Follow where God leads!

On Sunday, Nov. 18, about 22 children learned in Children’s Church that God is a leader who knows everything and will never lead them astray.

Sister Kim Willingham, with assistance from four volunteers, taught the children about how God told Abraham and his wife Sarah to move to a new place. And they obeyed. The Bible story was based on Genesis 12:1-8, and the children played a Simon Says-like game called “God says.” After the game the children discussed what makes it easy—or not easy—to follow a leader: One child, Taylor, said following is easy because we just have to follow the leader’s example. Caden, a different child, said following could be difficult if we’re talking too much or not listening for directions.

After the lesson, the children watched a Veggie Tales clip in which David confronted Goliath. The clip was connected to their earlier lesson of creation and how God made each of us special and with a purpose, no matter our age, size, gifts, or talents.

Sis. Kim taught the lesson with assistance from Sister Sandra Walker, Sister Margaret Kiwanuka-Woernle, Sister Kathy Krebs, and Brother Desmond Patterson.
