What We Learned:
Today, your child heard mored about Noah’s obedience. God gave Noah all the instructions needed to build a boat so big it could carry two of every kind of animal, along with all of the food! Noah’s job was difficult because no one would help. The people in that land thought he was crazy. However, Noah listened to God and knew He was telling the truth about the coming flood. Your child learned that it is important to listen to and obey God's Word. |

Words to Remember:
(Bible versions used are selected to help young children learn and understand the meaning of scripture.)
"Come my children, listen to me." Psalm 34:11a
Practice this verse several times with your
child during the week. This will not only help him or her remember the verse,
but it will also help to reinforce what was learned during class. |

Suggested Parent/Child Activity:
Let your child help you do something that requires a little bit of work. For example, you can rake the leaves, wash a car, or help someone else who needs a helping hand. Remind your child that it is important to do what we are told to do. God told Noah to build an ark. Although it may not have made a lot of sense at the time, Noah obeyed and it saved his and his family's lives. While working together, remind your child that when God asks us to do something, it is for our benefit and we should obey Him. And just as Noah helped to save all the animals on the ark, God wants us to help others as well. |

Daily Prayer:
Dear Lord, Thank You for giving us things to do. Some things might be big and some might be small, but You ask us to do them. I pray that You help us do these jobs without fussing or complaining but remembering that we are doing them for You. Amen. |
