On Sunday we had our first lesson of the new school year. We started a unit called, "Pictures of God." It will be 12 lessons long and the first topic was, "God is Like a Gift." Our main verse was Ephesians 2:8, "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God."
Our goals for this week are to:
1. Understand why God is like a gift
2. Understand how we can be a gift to others by giving ourselves
3. Write out a plan of action for being a gift this week.
We were challenged to pick a person, and to be a gift to that person either:
loving them
encouraging them
serving them
reaching out to them
listening to them

Our next lesson will be, "God is Like Water."
