First United Methodist Church Trussville Children's Ministry
Wednesday, May 17th Children's Activities
Nursery (6:00-7:30 p.m.) is available for children through age two and is located on the first floor of the children’s building.
Children ages 3k-4th grade (6:15-7:30 p.m.) will meet on the PLAYGROUND (weather permitting-if rain we'll be in our usual room upstairs). We are on an Animal Safari. This week we'll circle up and talk about the scripture from Joshua 6:1-20, the fall of Jericho. What does a Rhino and the Fall of Jericho have in common? Think horns.
5th Grade Small group wraps the school year up this week with a fun party. We are asking everyone to bring a snack to share. We'll provide paper goods and drinks. Join us at 6:15 pm in our 5th grade room.
We are having a great time Wednesday nights but we need your help. We need adults to assist as we learn and grow together from 6-7:30 pm. If you can help please sign up at the link below. All we need one adult each week.

Jesus Forgives a Woman John 8:1-11
““But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness” (1 John 1:9).
Some men catch a woman doing something wrong and decide to punish her by killing her! They ask Jesus what to do, trying to trick Jesus. Jesus tells them whoever hasn’t sinned can be the first one to hurt her. They all leave without hurting her, and Jesus forgives her.
Through the Week
- During your kids’ bath time, use shaving cream to write or draw on the tub or shower wall.
- Then wash the shaving cream away.
- You can also write in the steam on the bathroom mirror and watch it disappear.
- Talk about how that reminds you that Jesus forgives.
- Pray and thank Jesus that he forgives us.
Talk About This…Tell about a time you asked someone to forgive you. How did you feel afterward?
