The following is a collection of pictures from Kids Jam Sidewalk Sunday School. We went into Compton, Watts, and South Central to bring a Biblical message to the kids.
In the second neighborhood we went to, there was a really sweet grandma who stayed and listened to the lesson. She kept interjecting witty comments. The best was when she was speaking about the girl teaching the lesson, "She love Jesus so much, she don't even know she in danger!" I guess that's true. I remember a few years ago Pastor Tim encouraged us to get dangerous for Jesus. . . Although it didn't feel like it, I guess these are considered dangerous areas of LA.
SSS starts off with volunteers loving on kids. I played duck-duck-goose, Red Rover-Red Rover and UNO! It was so much fun! Once we played a while, we had "tarp time" where the kids sit on the blue tarp to hear the Bible lesson. The lesson was "Honor your father and mother," Matthew 15:4. They gave the kids a simple way they can do this: A- through their attitude, B- through their behavior, and C- through their communication. The funny grandma made sure to say to honor your grandmother, too.
This was definitely a rewarding experience. I love watching kids get excited about God.
