Children’s Sunday Sermon
January 1, 2024
Good morning, girls and boys. Today is the first day of the Year 2024, and I wish you a very Happy New Year!
This is a good time of year to start with a riddle, boys and girls. Here goes: What did the snowman order at McDonald’s? Give up? The answer is, “Icebergers with chili sauce!”
As we begin the New Year, boys and girls, today is also a good time to start thinking about what we want to change in our lives in the months ahead. Maybe you have decided to keep your room clean this year. Or maybe you need to work a little harder on your schoolwork. Most importantly, now is the time to start working on the Lessons we have learned in our Bible — Lessons from the Greatest Teacher there ever was. That’s right. Jesus is the Greatest Teacher there ever was. Now is a good time to remember our most important lesson for the year, which is to treat our brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers, teachers, and friends the way you would want them to treat you!
LOVE ONE ANOTHER. Be kind to each other. Help those who need you. Think of others first.
Today is a very important day to remember these things. And if you promise to think about this not just today, not just on Sunday, but every day, this will be a Happy New Year!
