MONTHLY FOCUS
JESUS WANTS TO BE MY FRIEND FOREVER
Remember This:
“How wide and long
and high and deep is
the love of Christ.”
Ephesians 3:18, NIV
Say This:
Who wants to be your friend forever?
Jesus wants to be my friend forever.
Do This:
MORNING TIME
When you go into your child’s room, say, “Good morning! It is an amazing day because Jesus is alive and He wants to be our friend forever!”
DRIVE TIME
As you drive or take a walk, talk about how Jesus made fish and bread for His friends to eat for breakfast. Ask your child, “If Jesus made breakfast for you, what would you want Him to make?”
CUDDLE TIME
Cuddle with your child this month and pray, “Dear God, thank You for the Church. Thank You for Jesus. Help (name of child) and me be willing to share our food, clothes, and home so we can be a good friend the way Jesus is a good friend. We love You, God. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
BATH TIME
Add plastic toy people to bath time. (Action figures totally work, too!) Encourage your child to line them up on the tub and say to them, “Jesus is alive and He wants to be your friend forever.” Talk about how Jesus told all of His friends to make sure everyone everywhere knows that He loves them and wants to be their friend forever.
