NT BX5 Low Furness

Had another great time this afternoon with the children of year 5/6 at Low Furness School.  It was the last lesson of Bible Explorer, so following a quick recap of the story from last week in particular Paul we launched into the lesson today.  We were looking at the missionary journeys of Paul as he took the gospel message to the gentle's of Europe and Asia.  We covered a few of the stories in Paul's life and his time when he was asked to explain himself to the Jewish Christians in Jerusalem.  We also heard about his beatings and imprisonment and the night earth quake that set him free.  Finally we read about his arrest and call to Rome as the message of Christianity spread even further.  The children enjoyed doing all the hand signs so much so they also wanted to do all the ones from last year's OT and go right through but time caught up with us.
