Romans 12:1

Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God - this is your spiritual act of worship.

Week Nine review

We are nearing the end of the fall semester.  Our last day for TKC will be November 20. 

This week we talked about the importance of the Bible and being able to read it.  We learned about William Tyndale and his contribution to translating the Bible into English from Latin.   We also discussed how today people are translating the Bible still and taking them to people all over the world, teaching them the word of God.  

Our memory verse for this week is: "Faith comes from hearing the word of God."  Romans 10:17

Week seven

This week we talked about orphans and the kind of lives they have in an orphanage. The kids were very sad to hear about how there is no one to tuck them in,  no one to love them, and they do not have many toys to play with.   Playgrounds are often small and much of the equipment is broken.   We compared our lives to those of the orphans and hopefully realized how blessed we are. 

We also made Christmas cards for an orphanage in Japan.  One of the emergency team members who has worked with children orphaned by the 2011 tsunami has asked for handmade cards and money to buy the children presents.  If you are interested in donating money or more cards,  please contact the Geyers at vincentgandelaineg@gmail.com
They are in contact with Hank, the emergency 
worker in Japan and are the ones collecting cards to send over.   

Our memory verse this week is "A father to the fatherless,  a defender of widows,  is Good in his holy dwelling." Psalm 68:5

  Praying all off you have a blessed week this week!  :)

Week 6 review

It's Monday and I just realized I forgot to blog!  Sorry.  :(

We had a great time on Wednesday with Mrs.  Rudd, one of our missionaries in Honduras.   She,  along with her husband, work there with deaf children and adults,  teaching them sign language and how much Jesus loves them.  

Mrs.  Rudd showed the children some simple signs and how they teach them to the children.   She also gave them a worksheet to do similar to what they use at their school.  

Our memory verse this week is : "that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,  in heaven and earth and under the earth, " Philippians 2:10
