Memory Verse:

And I commend joy, for man has no good thing under the sun but to eat and drink and be joyful, for this will go with him in his toil through the days of his life that God has given him under the sun.
-Ecclesiastes 8:15 ESV

Bible Lesson:

Isaac Is Born (Genesis 21)

When Isaac is finally born Sarah has another chance at joy. Before she took to laughing in doubt (remember the Snickers lesson) and it got her into a bit of trouble. This time she is overjoyed with the laugher and even has invited others to laugh with her. This is the joy we should have in our lives. A joy that invites others into it. We should want to bring laughter and joy to others, and of course Jesus as well. 

Break Me Off a Piece of That Communion - The Kit Kat Lesson #Kidmin

The Main Point:

Kit Kat - The Last Supper - Break Me Off a Piece of That Communion

The Object Lesson:

Taking Communion

We did not film this. We took a moment of the lesson time to actually have the children partake, if at least symbolically in communion. You have to at least see it done, or do it yourself to begin to understand it!

Memory Verse:

John 6:54

New International Version (NIV)
Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.

Bible Lesson:

The Last Supper - Mark 14, Matt 26, Luke 22

1 Cor. 11:24

Do this in remembrance of Jesus

The Last Supper occurs at the time of Passover. This was a time the Nation of Israel was to remind their children of the hardships they faced under the slavery in Egypt. They were to be reminded of this and teach their children 'in remembrance'. While the ordinance has changed slightly we do it for the same reason. We eat of the bread and drink of the fruit of the vine in order to have a time to remember the hardship we were under when slaves to sin. Jesus was and is still our freedom from that. His body was broken for us.
