Bible Story: Mary’s Gift to Jesus | John 12:1-8
Main Point: I Will Give!
Memory Verse: “Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me.” – John 14:21a (NIV)
During our Jungle Run video game this week, Quest kids ran through the jungle and jumped, ducked, and collected all the coins to beat Level 5, the Snake Adventure. See if you can help the snake collect all the coins!
We also checked in with our friends Button and Switch as they played through Video Game Land. They were on a mission to collect the fifth Power Up Piece, but were a little distracted in the Candy Zone!
There’s only one rule in Candy Zone: collect as much candy as possible! Button and Switch spent all day in the Candy Zone and collected lots and lots of candy. But once they were done collecting candy, they discovered the Gate Keeper was not able to join in on the fun and collect candy in the Candy Zone. Button and Switch turned to the Bible to see what it said about giving!
In the Bible, we learned a story when Mary gave to Jesus. She poured very expensive perfume on Jesus’ feet and wiped it with her hair. Although others thought she was silly for doing this, Jesus was proud of her for giving away such a special thing to Him. We learned that Jesus loves it when we give, and we should give some of what we have to others. Once Button and Switch learned this, they decided to give some of their candy to the Gate Keeper, and in return he gave them the fifth Power Up Piece!
Power Up Wheel
Throughout our time in Power Up Arcade, we will be collecting eight power up pieces to put on our very own power up wheel! This past weekend, all Quest children received a red power up piece.
