Christ Blessing the Children

Sermon Notes: Thursday, March 7 & Sunday, March 10

The next window in our series is Christ Blessing the Children, located in the back of

the sanctuary on the courtyard side of the church. It depicts a loving Jesus

affectionately welcoming the children to him. The window was given in memory of

Ethel Lindsay Klutts and Ella Mae Hunter by their Sunday School Class. These

women were beloved teachers in the children’s department and representative of the

countless teachers at First United Methodist Church who have welcomed and cared

for the children of this church.

As you prepare for worship this week, spend time with the scripture which inspired

the window, Luke 18:15-17. Reflect upon the questions:

1. How might you need Jesus’ blessings this week?

2. How might you bless a child?

3. What are ways in which you can serve the students at First United Methodist

Church?

See you Sunday as we see the beauty and hear the story!
