Sunday School Scoop   
 Greetings!  
     Two of our classes are visiting Jericho this Sunday. The second and third graders will find Joshua and his army marching around the city wall and giving the shout that brings the walls tumbling down. In the midst of the battle, Rahab who had hid the spies is saved. Her story is one of God's grace and love.    
   The pre-k class will find Zacchaeus centuries later in a Jericho tree waiting for Jesus to pass by. Jesus calls to Zacchaeus and invites himself to lunch. Zacchaeus life is changed forever. His story is one of God's grace and love.
    May we be reminded that our stories are stories of God's grace and love!                                                                Ministering with you, Sheryle Silvern
