Dear Families,
This week the children will be learning about the best part of having faith in Jesus, and that’s Heaven. Our eternal reward. Having faith in Christ brings us peace in knowing that one day we will live with Him, forever.
If your child wants to know that they are saved, you can talk to them at home. Help them to understand that Jesus came to Earth as God’s Son. He wants to forgive everyone’s sins. Everyone has sinned and needs forgiveness. Nobody can be good enough. Jesus is waiting for them to ask Him to be in their lives. Jesus will be there to help them through life. That’s what it is to be reborn. We all need to be made new in Him.
“Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come into him and will dine with him, and he with Me.” Revelations 3:20
They said, “Believe on the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household. Acts 16:31
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.
2 Corinthians 5:17
