Youth Groups, Mar. 22

This Sunday we will cover the dedication of Jesus as a baby in the temple.  God allowed two senior citizens the privilege of holding their Messiah and proclaiming the hope he would bring to the world.    This must have been a powerful experience for Joseph and Mary - a reminder that the Father's hand was at work in the life of the Son, their Son.
Do we welcome Jesus with the same enthusiasm and joy that these senior saints had?  Those mature, godly believers did an intergenerational service to Jesus's parents, and their words still speak to us.
Try to share the joy of Jesus intergenerationally.  It's important.
Also, discuss the joy Christ brings at home as a family.  Use the sheet below.
