Lesson: God continues to love us Bible Passage:
Matthew 3:13-17 (Jesus’ baptism), Matthew 19:14, Mark 10:14, Luke 18:16 (“Let the little children come to me”)
This is especially good if there is a baptism in the service. You’ll need a newborn baby. How you obtain one is your business, but most folks would just approach the parents in the congregation.
Hold the baby so that all the children can see him/her. Introduce the baby and the family. Tell them that this baby is especially important because a baby is God’s way of telling us we are on the right track for God’s vision. If we were unable to bring beautiful babies into the world, in 100 years, there would be no people left. And that is not what God wants. God wants us to be on God’s earth, take care of it and glorify it in God’s honor.
