Q & A

Helping with dinner tonight

Our church will celebrate Children's Sabbath later this month. Jana, our children's ministry director, asked first- and second-graders to answer questions to help write the Call to Worship.

I asked Cooper to answer the questions. His answers are below.

1. Why are you important? God made me.
2. What are ways that you can serve God? Praying
3. How does God help you do things that are hard? Believe in me
4. How do you share Jesus with other people? Passing the Good News on
5. How does our church (Holy Covenant) make you feel special? Because I have friends
6. Why do you think God loves you? Because I am very special
7. How does it make you feel to know that you're special to God and He wants you to share His love with other people? Happy
8. How does it make you feel to know that Jesus wants to be your best friend? Excited

Katie was with us during the interview. She wanted to answer the questions also. Her responses:

1. Why are you important? Because I love people
2. What are ways that you can serve God? Reading and when I am safe of knives and when I can't have tea
3. How does God help you do things that are hard? He helps me do puzzles and helps me to hang up pictures in windows and doors and helps me fix the refrigerator
4. How do you share Jesus with other people? So I can love
5. How does our church (Holy Covenant) make you feel special? How it makes me happy
6. Why do you think God loves you? Because that's sweet
7. How does it make you feel to know that you're special to God and He wants you to share His love with other people? When I love and take care of people
8. How does it make you feel to know that Jesus wants to be your best friend? When I ride ponies

Thalia just walked out the door with her friend to go to their weekly religious education class, so reading this post was just absolutely appropriate for me today! Sometimes I wonder if they're learning the right messages from us, the parents, and everyone else they come into contact with. Your kids' answers to the hard questions really made me smile and feel relief!
