Bible Memory

Dear Children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.
1 John 3:18(NIV)

Children, you show love for others by truly helping them, and not merely by talking about it.
1 John 3:18 (CEV)

Have children look this verse up several different Bible translations. Talk about what it means.

Main Lesson

Use this website to do a little research and decide what your kids would be interested in and what is appropriate. Talk about how the people involved in this ministry are loving with their actions.

Here is an article from the above site with the title, A Dream Comes True for a Village School. It would be interesting to discuss the difference between this classroom and your own school or homeschool.
