THE FISHING LINE February and Valentine’s Day brings back many memories of my childhood. It’s always exciting to either purchase Valentines or make your own to give to family members and friends, classmates, and teachers. It was a special way to show people around me that I really cared. This month as we celebrate Valentine’s Day, we will share a special story with the children about Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1-10). Scripture tells us this was a life-changing event for Zacchaeus. God’s Spirit moved Zacchaeus to say he would give half of his wealth to the poor. When Jesus becomes part of our lives we are changed. Jesus is not only our best friend, but He is also our Savior, who gave His life for us. Such love moves us to love and forgive others. May what Jesus said to Zacchaeus be said of us, too. “Today, salvation has come to this house” (Luke 19:9). Our little fishers will be busy getting ready for the upcoming Valentine’s party making valentines, decorations, etc. Remember, your at-home project is making a Valentine mailbox with your child. Enjoy this activity with them! Our T/Th classes will have their Valentine parties on Thursday, February 13. Valentine parties for our M/W/F and M-F students will be on Friday, February 14. I hope the children enjoy sharing God’s love with their special Valentines they are sending to each other.
