The kids were so cute in the service this morning-- thanks for helping them wave palm branches! I know God was praised and the congregation loved it.
Today in class we celebrated Palm Sunday with a parade! We marched around the room shaking shakers and blowing blowers to get in a celebratory mood. We then read the story of the Triumphal Entry and how those kids waved palm branches at a parade. The kids at that parade shouted Hosanna for Jesus, their King, who was riding on a donkey. We talked about Jesus, our King-- the King of our hearts.
We then made crowns to remember to celebrate Jesus, our King!
Next Week: Easter! We are going to be planting seeds next week and taking them home to watch them grow. We'll talk about new life rising from the earth. Be sure to have a sunny(ish) spot ready at home for your child's bean plant. You can watch it grow together next week and remember Easter means new life.
Brilliant! I loved having the kids call us into worship this morning. What a gift... And what a choir we'll have in a few years time. ;)
