Kids Church

This week at RWC Sunday school, we explored an engaging story from the Bible about the ‘ Relationship ’ between the famous twins, Jacob and Esau. Our focus was on Genesis 25:19-34 and 27:1-46 , where we learned about Esau and Jacob’s dynamic and how Esau despised his birthright.From this story, we discovered five valuable lessons for children: God keeps His promise in spite of man’s wrongdoings. Always strive to do the right thing and make good choices. Do not take for granted the privileges that God has given you. Deception is wrong and leads to hurt and anger. God works His plans through all kinds of people, no matter their flaws. Through the story, we highlighted how family relationships are precious. Kids learned that nurturing, forgiving, and repairing relationships are key to peace and love. Esau’s forgiveness of Jacob showed us the beauty of letting go of resentment. Even when mistakes happen, God’s grace can redeem situations, reminding us to always trust in His plan.These lessons sparked meaningful discussions about values like honesty, patience, forgiveness, and the importance of Relationships. 🌟 We look forward to seeing you all next week as we continue learning new stories and lessons in Sunday school.

This past Sunday, we had another incredible and energetic week with our Little Champs, where we focused on a special lesson from the Bible: ”Little Ones from the Bible.” The children learned about the life of Timothy, a young boy from Lystra, raised by his mother Eunice and grandmother Lois. Timothy’s name means “To honor God,” and he truly lived a life that reflected his name. As we delved into his story, the children discovered how the Apostle Paul mentored Timothy during his youth. Through this, we explored five key lessons Paul shared with Timothy that continue to resonate today: Even though we are young, we can pray for everyone.1 Timothy 2:1-2 (Pray for all people, including leaders, and for peaceful living.) You are never too young to learn Scripture.2 Timothy 3:15 (Deepen your understanding of God’s word.) ⁠Age doesn’t limit your spiritual maturity.1 Timothy 4:12 (Set an example for others in speech, conduct, love, faith, and purity.) Learn from others.1 Timothy 1:2 (Follow the guidance of spiritual elders.) Honor God.1 Timothy 1:17 (Put God first, live according to His word, serve others, and do good work.) Summary of the Discussion: These five powerful lessons were shared with our kids, reminding them that age is no barrier to living a godly life. We hope this seed has been deeply planted in their hearts and will continue to grow.

This week, at our Kids church we had Mega memory verse competition, where children were tasked with memorizing the full year 2024 memory verse. The majority of our children were prepared to recite the memory verse, and we had four internal judges to assess them. We are delighted that the younger generation is embracing the practice of Scripture memorization, as we believe this skill will serve them well during times of adversity. As the saying goes, “a verse a day keeps Satan away.” We are grateful to all of the judges who patiently listened to each child recite verses of the entire year, one by one. It was a truly inspiring experience to witness the dedication and talent of our children’s. Their passion for the Word of God is a testament to the strength of our community’s faith.

This week, our kids delved into the topic “The Church – One Body with Many Parts”, with a focus on Christ as the center of the body—the one who is greater than all. The study was based on 1 Corinthians 12:12-27 , where Paul writes:“For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ. For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and have all been made to drink into one Spirit.”Through this lesson, the kids learned that in God’s church, every Christian is important, and everyone has a purpose. While some roles might seem more visible or significant, the Church cannot function without the contributions of all its members.Key Takeaways from the Lesson: Christ is the Focus Point : Kids learned that Christ is the head of the Church and the center of all its functions. Each One Plays an Important Role : Every person in the Church is unique and valuable, with a role designed by God. Unity in Diversity: Despite our differences, we are united as one body in Christ. Practical Applications:The children explored how different parts of the body symbolize various roles in the Church: Hands : To comfort others. Feet : To bring others to Jesus. Mouth : To encourage and uplift others. Just like the body functions as a whole, each part contributes to the glorification of the one omnipotent God, who is Number 1. This session inspired the kids to reflect on their unique roles within the Church and how they can contribute to God’s mission with love and purpose. Have a blessed week ahead.

This week at RWC Sunday School, our kids had a special opportunity to reflect on and give thanks for the blessings of 2024, recognizing God’s goodness throughout the year. We kicked off the celebration with a fun game of musical chairs, where the kids enjoyed the thrill of the game while also sharing their thoughts when the music paused In addition to sharing, our beginners and primary children also worked on a creative craft project—building their own “Gratitude Tree.” They expressed their thankfulness by writing on gratitude tree and then shared their contributions with their peers. We concluded this special time together with a heart of thanksgiving, praying that the Lord will continue to guide, lead, and help us grow in faith, so that we may be fruitful in His service in the coming year. Each child took a turn to share their reflections on the following: One of the best things I enjoyed at Sunday School. My key takeaway from this year’s lessons. How helpful the Kids Church and Bible teachings were at Sunday School. Personal testimonies and experiences. My expectations and hopes for next year. A memorable moment or lesson from 2024.
