WCKIDS WEEKLY
WC KIDS WEEKLY | 2023 – Week 48
November 26, 2023
We are finishing our unit on Jesus’ death and resurrection. The question for this unit is, “How is Jesus the perfect King? Jesus perfectly rules over the universe as the King of Kings.” Our memory verse for this unit is Revelation 5:13 (NIV), “Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying: “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!” Try memorizing the verse as a family. (Preschoolers will memorize the bolded portion.)
This week, we will be learning about Resurrection Sunday, the day Jesus rose from the dead. We will see that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, but He didn’t stay dead. God was pleased with Jesus’ sacrifice and raised Jesus from the dead on the third day to reign as King over all creation. Jesus provides salvation from sin and the promise of eternal life. We can celebrate Jesus’ resurrection evey day.

We are in the middle of our unit on Jesus’ death and resurrection. The question for this unit is, “How is Jesus the perfect King? Jesus perfectly rules over the universe as the King of Kings.” Our memory verse for this unit is Revelation 5:13 (NIV), “Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying: “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!” Try memorizing the verse as a family. (Preschoolers will memorize the bolded portion.)
This week, we will be learning about Good Friday, the day of Jesus’ crucifixion. We will see that we deserve to die because of our sin, but God loves us and kept His promise to send a Savior. Jesus never sinned, but He died in our place. Now those who trust in Him have forgiveness through his blood and are no longer separated from God. We can only call it Good Friday because Jesus paid the price for our sin and paved the way for us to have an eternal relationship with God. That is Good News!

WC KIDS WEEKLY | 2023 – Week 46
November 12, 2023
We are beginning a new unit on Jesus’ death and resurrection. The question for this unit is, “How is Jesus the perfect King? Jesus perfectly rules over the universe as the King of Kings.” Our memory verse for this unit is Revelation 5:13 (NIV), “Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying: “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!” Try memorizing the verse as a family. (Preschoolers will memorize the bolded portion.)
This week, we will be learning about events surrounding Jesus’ trial that led to his death. We will see that Jesus was unfairly sentenced to die although He did no wrong. Jesus was the perfect substitute for us, dying on the cross for our sins and rising from the dead. Everyone who trusts in Jesus has forgiveness and life with God forever. Only the perfect sacrifice of God’s own Son could lead to our salvation. Despite our unworthiness, Christ remains worthy and invites us into His promise of everlasting life.

MORE ABOUT WESTMINSTER KIDS
We believe that the more you know Jesus, the more you know what really matters! Our key verse for ministry is: “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” (John 13:34-35)

Children’s Ministry Director
I love introducing children to the Gospel Story of the Bible and helping them become lifelong disciples of Jesus. I love the humor, the hugs, and the honesty of children. I grew up at Westminster and found it a great place to learn and develop my faith and gifts. My hope is that children will feel that Westminster is their church where they can learn to love like Jesus and develop their gifts.
My husband Dan and I have 3 children who are all adults now. In my free time, I enjoy reading, history, Paris tea, puzzles, and walks with my husband Dan.
