OK, well good morning and welcome to you brave souls that are out here on this chilly morning and thank you so much for for coming out a couple of things before we get started on our lesson today for children hopefully you have. The outline or the handout for children, I, there are a number of words, that you will hear in the lesson. You'll hear Jesus Christ, born again, sinner, believe and cross. When you hear those words, please put a tally mark down.
And after the lesson, after our Sunday school lesson, you can go to Pastor Mike and he has a prize for you but also for children that can recite John 3:16, we're talking probably for some of the younger children, if you can recite John 3:16 to Pastor Mike, he also has a prize for you. For adults, I have two. books, called Living Life Backwards that Pastor Mike mentioned last week. If you can please tell me, if you can come up to me after the lesson, let me know who the author of Ecclesiastes, who wrote the book of Ecclesiastes, if you can tell me that, I will give you a free copy of Living Life Backwards, OK?
So children, please don't miss your opportunity there. Marked on those words when you hear it, Jesus Christ born again, sinner, believe, and, and cross. All right. Well, with that, let's go ahead and open up in prayer.
Our heavenly Father, we thank you so much for our time. Thank you, Father, for this beautiful day, beautiful morning you've given to us. Thought it'd be a little bit more chilly, Father, but you've given us, you've given us warm weather this morning. I thank you so much for that....
