This Week's Children's Ministry Update

It's been another great week learning about how God is our provider. In 1Kings 17 we read about the word God gave Elijah for evil King Ahab. Elijah told Ahab, that there would be no rain for many years and it made him very angry. So Elijah went away into the wilderness and stayed by a brook. The problem was he had no food. So I asked the kids how is Elijah going to get food? There are no grocery stores, farms or restaurants around for him to use. This is were God comes in, in a big way. Our verse this week was 1Kings 17:6, the ravens brought, bread and meat, in the morning and evening and He drank from the brook. So God used ravens to deliver food to Elijah. We talked about how sometimes we use a pizza delivery man, and Peanut just happened to have a pizza box. In JAM we made little bread delivery ravens, to remind us how God provided for Elijah. It was a lot of fun!

Also an important update!
