Check out this page each week for easy ways to bring home what your child has been learning.

Think about all the people you encounter in a week: teachers, bus drivers, coaches, grocery store clerks, doctors, friends, and family members. You have so many relationships with people, and you’ll continue forming new relationships over time. Why does God bring so many people into our path? 
 
What if the answer to that question is so that you can help one another grow closer to Jesus Christ? Every follower of Jesus has been given a message to share the good news of the gospel with everyone they encounter. When we know Jesus as Lord, every relationship becomes an opportunity to share Jesus with those people. 
 
When the Holy Spirit led Philip to Ethiopian official, Philip obeyed and shared the story of Jesus with the man. Philip was willing to go anywhere to tell others about Jesus. The Holy Spirit helps you share Jesus with those you encounter each day. Are you willing to accept that mission? 
  
 
The Holy Spirit led Philip to help the Ethiopian official understand the good news about Jesus: Jesus died on the cross for our sins and was raised from the dead, just like the Old Testament prophets said.  

For Fun
Take a family walk through your neighborhood or in a local park. Discuss how the Spirit led Philip to find the man along the desert road and how Philip obeyed. Talk with kids about how they might respond when the Spirit leads them to use words and actions to help others learn about Jesus.

To Serve
Make a list of family, friends, or acquaintances who need to hear about Jesus. Talk about ways your family can use your relationship to help them learn more about Jesus. Ask God to give opportunities for you to tell them about Jesus. Pray that each person would respond by believing in Jesus.
