Happy New Year!
We are starting the New Year in Lighthouse off by talking about the Disciples. Check out Matthew 4 where Jesus asks the first two Disciples to come and follow him.
"Jesus called out to them, 'Come follow me and I will show you how to fish for people!' And they left their nets at once and followed him."
The Disciples have a moment when they really, truly get who Jesus is when they pull of the nets of fish. They immediately drop everything and follow Jesus. We could say they STOPPED, DROPPED and FOLLOWED! Click on the link to this video and watch the scripture be acted out...http://www.sermoncentral.com/videos/video-illustration-calling-of-the-first-disciples-childrens-bigbookmedia-kids-jesus-gospel-32096.asp
Over the next four weeks we will be finding out who the Disciples were, how they reacted when they met Jesus and what it means to be a Disciple. If you follow Jesus, you are a Disciple too!
Check out these two links when you get finished watching the video about Jesus calling His Disciples in Matthew and see if you can figure out this word search and word scramble!
Parents if you are looking for an activity for your younger ones then check out this colouring page.
That's all for now. I'll see you all upstairs on Sunday mornings!
