CHILDREN’S SABBATH—”SEUSS & SCRIPTURE”
On Sunday, October 23 we will have the annual Children’s Sabbath at the 10:30 worship service.
At our Weekend Bible School this year our children learned about some of the stories of one of the world’s most beloved children’s authors, Dr. Seuss. But a closer look at Seuss’s stories reveals that many are inspirational as well as instructive. This year’s Children’s Sabbath, “Seuss & Scripture” will be focused on the stories Horton Hatches the Egg; Horton Hears a Who!; The Sneetches; What Was I Afraid Of? and Yertle the Turtle and how they relate to scripture and to our own Christian walk.
The children will just be leading worship at the 10:30 service. At this worship service we will be focused on faithfulness, compassion, being one in Christ Jesus, giving our fears to God and building a foundation on Jesus.The scriptures for that Sunday will be: Matthew 25:31-40; 2 Corinthians 5:15-17; Galatians 3:23-28; Matthew 7:24-27; & Matthew 8:23-27.
The children have been increasing their enjoyment of Dr. Seuss, and more importantly they have been encouraged to think about God’s Word and themselves in new ways. My hope is that the entire church family, will be encouraged to do the same.
Thanks be to God!
