Barbara taught the lesson from the Jesus Storybook Bible.... "A New Way to See", about Saul of Tarsus, who was persecuting the Early Christians, met Jesus and became a Christian himself. He had a new life, a new way to see, and a new name, Paul the Apostle. We played a blind fold game and prayed for each other.

After the MOVE UP ceremony we went back to the KIDZ ROCK room.
All three of the KIDZ ROCK Teachers where with us. 
Miss Mindy, talked about BGMC (Boys and Girls Missionary Challenge), a program that supports missionaries working with kids around the world. ON the third Sunday of every month we learn with Miss Mindy, about a new country where missionaries share GOD's love and salvation with people who do not know Jesus as Savior.
Mr. RASHAD, ​introduced  this YouTube video for the Books of Bible song​ and 
he lead us in SWORD DRILLs for these verses:

• 1 John 1:9
• Isaiah 6:3
• ​Roman 1:8
• ​2 Peter 1:3,4

​Mrs. Barbara, then shared an object lesson with coffee and clear water to illustrate how, when we fill up with God, after salvation, we displace the sin in our lives with God's divine nature. The scripture reference was 2 Peter 1:3,4. the YouTube video below illustrates it.
​We were also reminded to bring our Tithes and Offerings.  God doesn't need our money, it is already his, we give because we need to trust in God, giving us helps us!
​We played a game of get to know each other BINGO with partners.

We ended our time together munching on delicious cupcakes!!!!
Thank you Miss Mindy!

Amy taught the Bid Kids class today. 
Our story title was GOD SENDS HELP from the scriptures; Acts chapters 1 thru 5 and John chapter 15. We learned that, after Jesus went back to heaven, He sent the POWER of the HOLY SPIRIT to the disciples. The Holy Spirit powerfully changed their lives. 
That same powerful Holy Spirit is available to every person who has become a FOLLOWER of Christ, who has made Jesus their TREASURE, who has ASKED Jesus to be their SAVIOR.

The hearing church kids, Calvary Temple KIDZ ROCK, sit in the adult service on the first Sunday of the month. We adored and sang praise to our awesome God, see the YOU TUBE videos  below.

Pastor George Valco preached from God's Word
2 Peter 1:3,4
His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, 4 by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

"If you want to ESCAPE  you must PARTAKE!" - we must participate and partake of God's divine nature through salvation if we want to escape the sinful influences of the world."

Pastor Valco referred to an illustration of  Coke and 7up; if you displace the Coke with enough 7up the whole container will be clear and not brown. The "youtube" video above is a similar illustration.
More you soak in the Word of God, prayer, the promises in the Bible... sin will start falling away.

Jesus made 3 unconditional promises:
1. I will Build my church- Matthew 16:14-18
2. I will Pour out spirit- Acts 2:32-33
3. I will Come again- John 14:1-3
