This past weekends lesson was centered around being and staying connected with God. Here is a sampling from our lesson: Jesus said, “I am the vine and you are the branches. If you remain in me, you will have much fruit, but apart from me you can do nothing”. Jesus wants our lives to produce a lot of fruit for His kingdom here on earth… Good fruit like being kind, generous and faithful. Most of all He wants us to love others as He has loved us. Can we do that on our own? No way! Just as the lamp must be plugged in before its light can shine (Jesus being our power source), and just as the branches must be connected to the vine before they can produce fruit, you and I must stay connected to Jesus to produce the good fruit that God expects of us.
This week, you can discuss with your children, ways that they can feel and stay connected with God. You can also talk about ways that they can help produce fruit for God's Kingdom on Earth.

This is the first time I am reading the new BLOG. Adding information to parents about this weeks lesson is a great way to keep the family connected. Thank you for giving us parents another helpful resource at our fingertips.
Just checked out the new blog. Good job! I like having a deeper knowledge of what's going on with my kids. I always ask Jacob about his church time, but getting details from him is sometimes difficult. This blog will allow me to ask him more intentional questions about his lesson.
Thanks!
