Famous Last Words

When someone is about to say goodbye, the things they say are very special.  The last words that people say are often filled with important lessons and lots of love.  These “famous last words” are remembered because they teach us what the person thought was the most important.  And when we remember these words, we can use them to help us in our own lives.

“Famous Last Words” is all about the last things Jesus said to His friends, the disciples, in His last day on earth. This series will help children learn about the very special words Jesus chose for His last messages.  They will think about what these words mean, why they are important for us, and how they can change their lives.  By understanding these words better, they will see how Jesus used His last moments to teach His friends and everyone in the world.

Words are very powerful.  They can change how we think, how we feel, and how we act.  Jesus’ last words are not just “famous”, they are also filled with love, wisdom, and very important lessons.  They are like a guide for us, showing us how to live a good life.  By studying them, we can learn about faith, love, forgiveness, and how to be good to each other.

We pray this “Famous Last Words” series will help kids understand these important words better.  We are believing they will learn from Jesus’ last words and use them to make themselves, their friends and family, and the whole world a better place.
