Teaching Sunday School

After the summer off, I again began teaching the younger Sunday School class.  This year we have started with basically the siblings of 2 families. 

Jasime has been coming for a couple of years now and just started 2nd grade. Her "little" brother is Johnny, who just started kindergarten and our SS program. 

Jacob Cruz is also in 2nd grade.  His younger sister, Sarah will turn 4 next month but is learning her letters and does quite well with the crafts even if her attention span isn't quite equal to the older ones.  Their older sister, Ada, is in 5th grade and very happy to learn more about God.  She helps as my assistant teacher when I need an extra hand (or voice).  Ada is in my class since we don't have any other upper elementary kids at the moment. They all moved up to Junior High and more teen topics in class.

And then there is Jaide.  It is amazing I got a photo of her by herself and quiet!   She is 2 and her mom helps with the Junior and High School group.  We do not have a nursery program and so Jaide tends to roam between the classes enjoying whatever toys are out and getting lots of attention from the older kids.

Please pray for the children in the Sunday School program.  Most have difficult family lives and yet God has given us the opportunity to share His love and salvation with them.  Pray I would communicate clearly and that these little ones would grow in wisdom and knowledge of Christ.
