The preschoolers learn the story of 10 men with leprosy who asked Jesus for help. Jesus healed them, and only one thought to say, "Thank you." (Luke 17:11-19). The school-age classes continue a study of the ways in which we praise God through prayers, hymns, listening to messages and scripture from the Bible, celebrate the sacraments, and give offerings to our church and others (Luke 15: 11-32).

THOUGHT OF THE WEEK
What I really lack is to clear in my mind what I am to do, not what I am to know . . . The thing is to understand myself, to see what God really wishes me to do . . . What good would it do me to be able to explain the meaning of Christianity if it had no deeper significance for me and for my life?
-Soren Kierkegaard, Danish theologian, philosopher, and psychologist
