I taught Sunday school to the African children for the first time 2 Sundays ago. I was quite nervous because I wasn't sure I would relate well to them but, God came through and He helped me! I taught on Jesus Power and how the Holy Ghost which is Jesus power, is more powerful than anything else! I told the story of Cornelius and how he knew there was a power but, he wasn't sure what power. I brought out the point that even though he was a Gentile it wasn't Jesus who didn't want him to have the power. It was the Jews. Jesus never said he couldn’t have the HG! I said that, even though they are children that they can have the power also! I talked about how Jesus said suffer the children to come unto me. I brought my Friend Kofi with me. He is in the picture.
I really had a great time teaching! I loved the look on their faces when Kofi came out. This is what carrying His light all is about! No one got the HG but, the seed was planted that, they can have it if they desire it. Jesus didn't just die for the big people but, He died for the small people too! Thank you Jesus!!!!
They have a saying that the children say at various times in the service. They say it in dialect. The Sunday I taught the SS teacher told me what they say.
It goes something like this “Jesus friend of children" a line I can't remember then they say "when you come into the sanctuary. SHUT YOUR MOUTH!" I laughed when she told me that! LOL
