Memory Verses for 5th and 6th Grade Bible

Memory work for Friday, March 29, I Corinthians 5:23-24 - two practice writes will be due the same day.

I have included the whole passage the students will learn.

²³For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, ²⁴and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” ²⁵In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.” ²⁶For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.

WELCOME TO MRS. VAN BEEK’S WEBPAGE!

This webpage was created to keep students and parents informed of happenings at Sanborn Christian School and specifically my classroom. There are highlights of the week to come and assignments listed. Some assignments may change from day to day but this is what next week will look like. Our theme for the 2018-2019 year is Instruments in the Master's Hand or Tools in the Father's Hands. We are all tools used by God for the advancement of His Kingdom. We must be ready to GO and serve.
