THE LESSON:

Today, we’re going to talk about Philip and the Ethiopian in Acts chapter 8. Before we get started, let’s take a moment to pray. PRAY about:

  • How God led Philip to meet the official.
  • How the official was ready to accept Jesus as his savior.
  • How Jesus can help us talk to people about His love for us.

Now, sit with your teachers for a little while to LISTEN to this wonderful story:

Sit down and watch to see how Philip was faithful to share the Good News with the government official from Ethiopia. God can help you share your love for Jesus with others, too!

We can praise God AND share the Good News of Jesus with others through music. Grab your family, raise your voices together and DANCE!!!

Remember, Jesus’ love is a special gift. Jesus can use us to tell others about Him.
