WOW Week 6 - G4/G5 Class on 1/10/2016

Hi parents,
Here is the quick update on week #6, WoW Class on 1/10/2016.

The theme is "The Word Became Flesh", as demonstrated in the account of Gospel of John 1: 1-18. 
Firstly, we clarify that the writer of John's gospel was the Apostle John, one of Jesus's disciples, who is not to be mistaken for John the Baptist.

This Gospel of John is also called (by some) the "Light" of the Gospel;

John 1:5
  "光照在黑暗裡、黑暗卻不接受光。" - as Jesus is the Light of the World.



In addition, Jesus (the WORD) became flesh via the the Word (LOGOS in greek)
John 1:1
  "太初有道、道與　神同在、道就是　神。"

Our key verse is John 1:12,
  "凡接待他的、就是信他名的人、他就賜他們權柄、作　神的兒女"

Intro/Hands-on activitity
As we received HIM as our savior, it is our desire to build up the Body of Christ.
We instill the message by playing a wood/building block game; Each team was given the same amount of wood blocks to build a symbolic "body" - it needs to be strong, tall, and in an unity figure to relate to believers who are called to build up the Body of Christ.


Each team did their best to finish the work. It is encouraging to see the team work.

Since this is week 6, we would like to do a quick summary to refresh all the lessons we have taught and shared with the class so far; We played a "memory game" to let two teams to compete finding match pair of cards with the scripture messages;

We have 26 envelopes taped on the wall, with one index card in each envelop; Each team is to pick two envelops at a time trying to locate the matching pair with the same scripture message;  Some examples are,
1) Light of the World
2) God with US.
3) The Word was God.
4) Children of GOD
  As you can imagine, the competition is intense!

Both teams now change their name;
PinkNose is now called "Bye! Felisha", whose score is 10 matching pairs.
Bob's House becomes "Happy Faces", whose score is 3 pairs.

As we went through each card's message, it is the opportunity to refresh the lessons from week 1.

OK - our memory verse: John 1:12
  "凡接待他的、就是信他名的人、他就賜他們權柄、作　神的兒女".
