Kindergarten: Let’s Find Out About Worship
I am your God and you are my child.  You belong to me and I belong to you. 
In the United Methodist Church, it is common for children to be baptized as infants.  If you were baptized as an infant, as a family, talk to you about the day you were baptized.  Not everyone is baptized as an infant. If you haven’t been baptized yet, talk with your family about what it means to be baptized.
 
1st & 2nd Grades

Bible Story:  Mark 1:4-11
Leap of Faith:  My faith in God grows as I grow.
Twenty years have passed since Jesus was a boy at the Temple.  The time has come for him to begin the job laid out for him by God.  The book of Mark begins with what he thought was the most important part of Jesus’ life—being baptized.  In today’s story, Jesus is ready to take on the job that God has planned for him.  He comes to the river Jordan where his cousin John is preaching and teaching.  What amazing thing happened after Jesus was baptized?  Talk with your family about your baptism and what has happened in your life since that day.

Bible Verse: Jesus asked them, “Why are your frightened?  Don’t you have faith yet?” Mark 4:40 (CEB)
 
The Gospels tells about: Miraculous Signs
Bible Story:   Mark 4:35-41
Faith Direction:  Jesus performed miracles so that we may have faith.
 
What do you think would have been the hardest part about being one of Jesus’ disciples? 
Do you think it was difficult for Jesus to have followers who sometimes did not understand his true identity?  What signs and wonders from God do you experience in your everyday life?  Prayer: God of miracles, thank you for sending us signs and wonders that reveal your love for us.  Help us be open to the many ways you are in relationship with us through Jesus.  Amen.
