MEMORY VERSE: Mark 16:15 “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”

CENTRAL TRUTH:
Tell others about Jesus.

TEACHER’S OBJECTIVE
1. Children should know the good news.
2. Children should be able to tell others the good news.

INTRODUCTION
Jesus told his disciples to go into all the world telling everyone that He paid the penalty for sin
and that those who believe in Him can be forgiven and live eternally with God. This is the
Good News; it is also called the gospel. Christian disciples today in all parts of the world
are preaching this Gospel to people who haven’t heard it. In our Bible text today a woman
was a witness for Jesus Christ and through her many people believed in Jesus. God wants
us to tell the Good News to others too.

Introduce the lesson by teaching the children the following song (Make sure the song is
visualized)

Stop and let me tell you,
What the Lord has done for me (2x)
He forgave my sin and
He saved my soul,
He cleansed my heart and
He made me whole,
Stop and let me tell you,
What the Lord has done for me.

Go and tell the story,
Of the Christ of Calvary (2X)
He’ll forgive their sins,
He will save their souls,
He’ll cleanse their hearts
He will make them whole,
Go and tell the story
Of the Christ of Calvary.

PROGRESSION OF EVENTS
1. Jesus spoke to a Samaritan woman; He told her that He was the Messiah.
2. The woman of Samaria wanted to fetch water at the well but after her discussion with
    Jesus, she left her waterpot and ran to witness.
3. The Men of the city came to meet Jesus themselves after hearing the woman’s testimony.
4. Many believed in Jesus because of the woman’s speech.
5. And many more believed because of Jesus word.
6. And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying, for we have
    heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.
7. God and tell others the Good News like this woman of Samaria.

LIFE APPLICATION
The Samaritan woman immediately shared her experience with others. Despite her reputation,
many took her invitation and came out to meet Jesus. Perhaps there are sins in our past of
which we are ashamed, but Christ changes us. As people see these changes, they become
curious; use these opportunities to introduce them to Christ.

MESSAGE OF SALVATION
Jesus died for our sins, He was buried but He arose on the third day. Those who believe in
Him can be forgiven and live eternally with God. (1 Corinthians 15:1-4). This is the Good News.

INVITATION
Have you believed in Jesus Christ the Saviour of the world? If you believe in Jesus you will
be forgiven of your sins and you would live eternally with God.”
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in
Him should not perish, but have everlasting life” John 3:16.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
1. What is the Good News? Jesus Christ died for our sins, if we believe in Him and turn
    away from sin, we shall be saved and we would live eternally with God.
2. What are we to do with the Good News? Tell others.

ACTIVITY
Using the wordless book simply teach children how they can tell others the Good News.
