Have you been finding it hard to keep up with the Sunday (home) School videos each week? Feeling guilty about falling behind?
Stop!!
I’d like to free you from any of that and congratulate you on keeping your child alive! If you are like many primary caregivers right now, you are trying to manage homeschooling, work, keeping the house from the brink of destruction… etc! And we understand how difficult it is!
We here at Chelsea Green Church are not passing judgement and just want to provide the content and support if you need.
If you’ve found that you’ve only done some or even none of the previous videos, this week is a great week to jump back in. We are starting a new, three week unit. And if you aren’t able to, please don’t worry… when we get back into the church we will be picking back up where we left off and will get your child up to speed.
This weeks bible story: Bread from Heaven

Optional Activity:
Preschool
Gather manna
Invite toddlers to lay down like they are sleeping. While they clothes their eyes,
scatter cotton balls on the ground. Guide the toddlers to “wake up” and gather
the manna. Briefly review the Bible story.
SAY: GOD IS GOOD. God gave His people water and food in the wilderness. Later,
God sent Jesus because He loves us.
School Age Children:
Gather manna
Use confetti, shredded paper, or the scraps from a hole
puncher to represent small flakes of manna. Scatter the
manna around the room. Challenge the kids to gather it all
up. You may time them to see how long it takes.
SAY •In our game, you wanted to gather as much “manna”
as you could. Manna was a special bread God
provided to His people. At first they did not know
what it was. The word manna even means “what is
it?” However, unlike our game, God’s people were
only supposed to gather as much as they needed;
they were not to gather any extra!
Praying for you all during these trying times. May this bible story be a blessing not just to the children but all of us parents as well!
