This week's lesson tips:Oct. 14th, lesson 2 of 4

  Click here and watch this month's 3 min overview for October.

October  Monthly Theme:  God loves me and helps me do BIG things.  These are all stories of how God helped David do Big things. 

Bible Story Focus this week: David is selected to be the king.  God will help prepare him.

Scripture:  "We have the Lord our God to help us and to fight our battles for us." 2nd Chronicles 32:8 (see motions in the curriculum.)

Remember to review the scripture with children.

1. Story:   This week's story will not be found in many children's Bibles.  Please use the "Storyteller" part of the "Make it True" section of your curriculum.  If you bring a crown (even hand made) and a paper heart you can read the story right from the curriculum.  Also,  kids can be a part of the story as 7 of them can be Jesses' sons.

2. Activities:Easy no prop games this week-Seven times and Guess Who. 
           a. Find it game-We have a large rice table I could wheel to your room.  You can hide items in there and children can find them.  Table is here every Sunday.
           b. God Helps me-Interactive craft activity.  Kids could cut themselves.  They love to do that.     
           c. Crown me-We do have bulletin board edging you could use.  Let me know if you would need this.

 
3.Prayer time: Don't forget to spend time asking children about how you could pray for them and then lead them in prayer.
