'Open the book'

Open the book shared the story of Jesus being baptised.

The story was acted out with John wanting to live a very simple life.  Many people came to be baptised and follow in John's steps living a simple life. He sometimes even ate locusts or slept outside under the stars.  

Jesus came to be baptised.  We heard how, as soon as Jesus was baptised, the sky opened up and the Holy Spirit came like a beautiful white dove, and landed right on Jesus shoulder.  Then a voice from heaven said, "This is my Son, I love him and I am pleased with him."  This made us understand how special Jesus is. 


We prayed about people who were special to us  - our family, friends and thought about our school family and how special everyone is.
