KFW—Gather around the table!
God loves everyone—Let’s show others how much God loves them—no exceptions!
(Luke 14:7-14)
Come and join me at the table, will you? Let’s sit together
in a circle.
Do you know what Jesus said about gathering at the
table? He tells a story about how we
should not always think of ourselves first, but take care of others first
because it honors God. He told a man who
was feeding him dinner, “The next time you put on a dinner, don’t just invite your
friends and family and rich neighbors, the kind of people who will also invite
you to dinner. Invite some people who never get invited out, the misfits from
the wrong side of the tracks. You’ll be—and experience—a blessing. “
In a few weeks, we will be having the Jesus Love Feast at our
church. Do you know what this is? This
is one day a year we have a BIG party at our church and next door at North
County Christian church and we offer food, clothes, play time, games and fun
for families and children who are very special—they do not have homes to live in
and don’t usually get invited to big parties.
It is a very special time for people in our church who want a chance to
give something to people who can’t give us something back. It is a chance to show our love for God. That day, we can’t have a lot of kids here
(you would be bored with those jobs!)
but you can help me today by making cards for the Jesus love feast. Draw pictures, tell our special guests how much
Jesus loves them and how much we really want to share with them. Can you help me make cards today?
