To give light upon the earth

One Page Sunday School

Each lesson in this five-year curriculum includes a story summary, discussion questions, and Bible reference. The lessons are infused with spiritual principles found in the Beatitudes, the Lord's Prayer, and the Great Commandment: love of God and neighbor. Students will encounter traditional wording to familiarize them with classic literary expressions.

Children will use a handout that features a coloring picture. The handouts are designed to fill a half-hour children's class, ages 8-12. ... see: For Teachers

Scroll to the bottom of this post for information on how to receive the handouts in PDF format via email.
