Yesterday our lesson was centered around the Palm Sunday and crucifixion stories. Jesus's death on the cross was not part of the disciples' plan for Jesus; however, God had a much bigger and better plan! The disciples needed to wait and trust God. Next Sunday, the children will hear the rest of the story....
Also, the Penny Power jug will be in RF for 2 more Sundays before it is counted at the MCC Relief Sale - the children are invited to bring their pennies to support Mennonite Central Committee's peace initiatives around the world. May your family have a meaningful week as we remember Christ's sacrifice for us. Blessings, Reign Forest Team PATIENCE: Waiting until later for what you want now.
