People Only! Connect the dots to reveal a humorous scene from the video.
Why are the children in the water? They were just baptized in the lake.
Who is the boy wearing glasses in the picture? Can you remember His name? Jia Wei.
Jia Wei appeared in a previous Superbook adventure. If you were here for that, what part did he play in Chris and Joy beginning a new life following Jesus? He invited them to a Bible study.
At first, Chris wanted Jia Wei to keep his faith and beliefs to himself. That isn’t what Jesus wants us to do. He wants us to be fishers of people and tell others about Him. Jia Wei was willing to share Jesus with others, even when he was teased and bullied. Because of his boldness, Chris, Joy, and eventually Ellie became brand new through Christ.
How do you think Jia Wei felt seeing Chris, Joy, and Ellie being baptized? Happy, proud, and excited.
Have you ever been to a baptism? What was it like? Children respond.
Do you remember who gave the towels to the children? Gizmo.
Conclusion: Jesus wants us all to experience the joy of being fishers of people! There is no greater joy in our Christian journey than to introduce someone to Jesus! Heaven celebrates when a new believer is added to God’s kingdom!
