This Week in Kid City | August 10

Hi Kid City!

This week we talked about Jesus being our rescuer! We also learned about Jonah and the big fish! We know that every story in the bible points to JESUS. Even though the story of Jonah happened many years before Jesus walked on the earth, his story also points to Jesus in a big way. 

God sent a big fish to rescue Jonah. Jonah sat in the belly of that fish for 3 whole days. But did you know that Jesus did something so much greater?! Jesus lived a perfect life, he died on the cross, he was buried in a tomb and he was dead for 3 whole days…. But then, he rose! He came back to life! Jesus loves us so much that he conquered all sin and death! God sent Jesus to rescue us so that we can be a part of his family forever. 

Below is a list of activities that you can engage your little one throughout the week. It will also be posted to Instagram (@fwcitychurchkids) and Facebook (City Church Kids). 

Main Truth: Jesus is our rescuer

Bible Verse: “Love the Lord your God with all of your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might” – Deuteronomy 6:5

Coloring Sheets – Attached

Activity – This week, let’s declare that Jesus is our rescuer in our homes! On a roll of white craft paper (or whatever you have on hand), write in large letters that your little one can decorate, “Jesus is my rescuer”. Have your little one color, paint, or use stickers to make the banner their own! Hang the banner in your home all week long and let it be a reminder to revisit the message throughout the week. 

Memory Verse – “Love the Lord your God with all of your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might” – Deuteronomy 6:5

Love – put your hand over your heart

The Lord your God – point up to the sky

With all of your heart – put your hands over your heart

With all of your soul – wrap your arms around you like a hug

And with all of your might – strong arms
