Why Pray?

From "Prayer" and can be found at bibletoday4kids.com

This week, the children began a seven-part lesson on prayer, using a lesson plan developed by Margaret Law and can be downloaded for free from www.bibletoday4kids.com. Part one of "Prayer" discusses why we should pray - because prayer is "our lifeline to God." The children learned that they should pray at all times and talk with God as if talking to a friend. We pray to develop a relationship with the Father. Prayer is something that should be a big part of a Christian's life.

Memory Verse: "Pray at all times." (I Thessalonians 5:17)

I also introduced a fun app on the iPad called Jesus Loves Me by Listener Kids. It is a fun app mainly for smaller children, but my ten-year-olds had fun with the recording section of the app where they sang "Jesus Loves Me" to several different music mixes, including dance, hip-hop, and video game. There are more games and songs that are not free ($2.99), but I think it is worth the price. Below you will find Listener Kids's video on YouTube.



The kids did their own recording of "Jesus Loves Me" to the dance mix and can be found on the Tabernacle of Praise website. Unfortunately, Blogger does not have a way to share audio.
