WOW week 7, G4/G5 Class 1/15/2012

Hi parents,

This is the WoW week 7 update on G4/G5 Class on Jan-15;
Main theme is "God/Jesus knows us even when we do not know him yet".

The main scriptures are found in 約翰福音 1:41 to 51, where Jesus saw Nathanael
(1:50, 在無花果樹底下看見你).

Firstly, bunch of poster with traffic signs:
Most of adults are familiar with the traffic signs on the road; whether it's speed limit, or school zone, etc. The "ice-breaking" session is to point out things/signs that Jesus intends to get our attention.
An example is "Do Not Left-Turn" below - it shows us the danger or road condition; and yet we often go on our own ways. After a few examples, this one came as a surprise for students. Knowing Jesus is the key step to the salvation.

We all love to have "Jesus Inside" sign for us instead of having the HM (Hazardous Material = sin) inside of us.


Scriptures time:
Read through the verses 約翰福音 1:41 to 51, and have students to practice the 4W-1H principles - What, Who, When, and Where, and How if applicable.
E.g.,
Who: 腓力, 拿但業, 耶穌
What: 腓力找著拿但業, 見耶穌
How: 耶穌回答說、腓力還沒有招呼你、你在無花果樹底下、我就看見你了。As miraculous as it sounds, Jesus saw us even when we still do not know him yet. He is to reveal to us wonderful things.
Where: 次日、耶穌想要往加利利去

Up-Word puzzle activity:
We had a quick activity using Up-Words square pieces for two teams
to re-construct the verses; they are,

A) Create in me a pure heart
B) The Word became flesh.

It's a desire for every christian to ask God to create in me a pure heart. After all, Jesus knows each and everyone of us - and accepts me just as I am.

Due to pcac congregation meeting this Sunday, the class has to end around 12:00/noon time.
Lunch is served.

Next week, since Chinese Lunar New Year, we'll have a sweet treat for the class. :)

Memory verse:
詩篇51:10
Chinese: 神阿、求你為我造清潔的心、使我裡面重新有正直的靈。〔正直或作堅定〕
English: Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me

There may be a pop-quiz - encourage your student to memorize the verses.

KLUP!
