Mr. John came home from work when Dewey was preparing to come back home. Smiling, he greeted his friend’s father and asked him:
- I would like to know about what do you talk to the people who are passing by at the church door. Don’t you ever get tired? You do the same thing every day…
The man answered with a smile:
- I evangelize people because I am an evangelist and I speak of the power and love of God for them. I tell them what God has done in my life and, speaking of God to people does not make me get tired, because I know that by doing so I made Him very happy. Hearing those words, Dewey looked to his friend and said that when we grew up, he would be an evangelist, just like his father. And Alan explained that, even being children, they could speak of Jesus to other kids. Dewey answered:
- Nice, now I will speak of Jesus to my family and friends. Dewey went home thinking of the people he would invite to the church.

FUN CHAT
Educator, take to the class inserts and flyers of several supermarkets. Start the fun chat by saying the following: Children, do you see these flyers? (Show it). On it we have sales from these supermarkets and grocery stores (read the flayers). There are prices of several products and through them the housewives can compare the best place to go shopping. You know, friends, when a housewife finds a place with good prices she tells to her friends because she knows they will buy things cheaper and will spend less money.
Class, we also have to be like this concerning the Lord Jesus. Raise your hand if you love Jesus! (Wait their participation). Now, raise your hand if you recognize that Jesus is everything in your life and you will never get away from Him! (Wait their participation). Amen! So, children, as well as the inserts announce about promotions in supermarkets, also each one of us should announce with our voices what God has done in our lives and how wonderful He is. If we do that, we will bring lots of friends, family and acquaintances to the presence of God. And these people will be blessed just as the lady who was evangelized by Mr. John from today’s story and we will praise and please our God, amen?
Educator, with the help of the poster of the week, memorize the verse and then make a prayer with the class.
