The Parent Weekly for November 26th, God Keeps His Promise
What we learned today:
Big Idea: God Keeps His Promise (part 1)
Luke 1v26–56; Matthew 1v18–25
Mary received the news that she was going to have a baby whom she was to name Jesus, the promised Savior. At the time she received this news, Mary was engaged to a man named Joseph. God told Joseph in a dream about the baby Jesus. He is the fulfillment of the promise God had made long ago to redeem mankind.

Did you know?
At the same time Mary was carrying Jesus, her cousin Elizabeth was also carrying a baby who was John the Baptist.
It was an angel who told Mary and Joseph to give the baby the name Jesus.
Connect as a family
One way children learn the faithfulness of God is through their parents. When we keep our promises and follow through with what we say, little ones are able to see how God keeps His promises.
Who is the Savior that God promised to send?
Jesus is the promised Savior!
Blessing
Blessings are often used in the Bible. A blessing can be a prayer of commission, a portion of Scripture, or words to encourage and guide.
A blessing to pray over your child; (Child’s name), may you always rejoice in God because He always keeps His promises.
