Theme Verse: “The gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b)

Session 5: God Values You

Bible Story: Jesus and the Children (Matthew 19:13-15; Mark 10:13-16)

Families,

This week is a special Hooray Day, and preschoolers will learn that God values them. In Matthew 19:13-15 and Mark 10:13-16, Jesus showed that He valued children by inviting them to come to Him when others were trying to keep them away. Preschoolers can know that God knows them, values them, and loves them so much. He thinks they’re important and sent Jesus so they can have a friendship with Him.

Invite your preschoolers to draw and color a self-portrait. Tell your preschoolers how valuable and important they are. Let them know that God loves them and thinks they’re valuable too!

Check out Hyfi At Home for fun family engagement around last week’s Bible story.
