VERSES: John 2:1-11 MEMORY VERSE: John 2:11 "...and his disciples believed in him." BOOK TO REMEMBER: Philippians. Write 'Philippians' on small slips of paper and hand out at the end of class for the students to memorize at home. PRAYER: Thank God from whom all blessings come. SPECIAL SONG: Jesus Taught By Parables And Miracles (see March - Songs We Sing In Bible Class #4 on this blog. Click orange circle to hear tune.) VISUAL AID: A Large Activity (see below) LESSON POINTS: In just a few lessons, we have learned a lot about Jesus, God's only begotten Son! We have learned how He was born, how Herod tried to kill Him, how He lived in Egypt for a short time, how He got 'lost' in Jerusalem when He was twelve years old, how He began to preach to the people when He was about thirty years old (Luke 3:23), and how He chose twelve men to follow Him. Today, we will study about Jesus' first miracle and why He performed miracles. Jesus, His disciples, and Jesus' mother, Mary, attended a wedding in the city of Cana. The Bible says that the people who were in charge of the wedding ran out of wine for the people to drink. In Bible times, people sometimes called grape juice 'wine,' so this could be a time when the drink of the wedding was grape juice and not like the wine that has alcohol in it. God is not pleased when people drink wine and get drunk. Mary heard that the people were out of wine and told Jesus about the problem. Jesus, being respectful, said to His mother that his time had not yet come. Mary told the servants at the wedding to do whatever Jesus told them to do. Jesus saw that there were six stone water pots set aside that would hold twenty to thirty gallons of water each. Jesus told the servants to fill the water pots with water. The servants filled the pots to the very brim. Jesus then told the servants to take the water pots to the host of the wedding. The host did not know that Jesus had told the servants any instructions at all, but the servants knew what Jesus had said and what they had done with their own hands. They had put water into the water pots as Jesus had asked them to do and that was all. When the host of the wedding had tasted the water that Jesus had turned to wine, he said that usually people gave the best wine at the beginning of the wedding, but the wine he was tasting was better than the first! This was the beginning of Jesus' miracles and it was done in the city of Cana in Galilee. Jesus did many miracles after this one and they were all done to prove that He was the Son of God. Could anyone else turn water into a different kind of liquid? No! But Jesus did. The Bible says that this miracle showed Jesus' glory and his disciples believed in Him. Jesus is the Son of God! "Older Student" Tips: Did you know that sometimes grape juice is called wine in the Bible? The Greek word (oinos) that translators translated into English could be used to refer to all forms of the grape, not only the fermented wine that we think of today. Just as the servants obeyed Mary's words--"whatever He saith unto you, do it"--we should do the same and obey all that Jesus says. We will be glad we did! ACTIVITY: Jesus Turns The Water Into Wine (This activity may look difficult, but not so. Try it step by step. Try it before class time to make certain everything works smoothly.) Materials needed: 6" x 14" brown construction paper, 6" x 16" light brown construction paper, 1.5" x 18" strip of blue paper, 1.5" x 18" strip of purple construction paper, marker or crayon, glue, tape, scissors. Hand out brown paper. Fold brown paper in half lengthwise. Fold brown paper again, but this time in thirds, so when it is opened it has twelve boxes. Unfold paper, so it is only folded in half lengthwise. On folded top edge, draw arches between squares. Cut arches out at top. Draw arches on bottom edges (still folded). Cut bottom arches out. Round outer corner edges. These are six brown water pots. Draw lines between water pots. On top folded edge, draw scallops from one water pot to the next. Write numbers (in order) on water pots. Hand out light brown paper. Glue the back of the folded water pots to the middle of the light brown paper. Write "Jesus' First Miracle" at the top of the light brown paper. Write "John 2:1-11" at the bottom of the light brown paper. At the edges of the dark brown paper, cut about 2" through each side of the light brown paper--but do not to the bottom edge of the light brown paper. Hand out blue and purple paper. Tape one edge of the blue paper to the one edge of the purple paper to form one long two-colored strip. Open dark brown water pots. Thread long strip of paper up through one cut side of the light brown paper where the student cut. Thread the long strip of paper back down through the other side of the light brown paper. Tape to secure. Close water pots. How it works: Open the water pots. As the student turns the blue strip to the front of the paper, the water pots are filled with blue water, but when the purple strip is turned to the front of the paper, the water pots are filled with purple wine.
John 2:1-11 Today I have an activity that will shock your kids! Keep reading and I will show you how to turn water into wine while your students watch in amazement. The second half of today's post will include a game. To set the mood for the lesson, I served snacks to the kids that might have been found at the Cana wedding feast. We compared wedding receptions of today to those in bible times. One huge difference is their feasts lasted for seven days. Can you imagine! As I segued into the lesson, I began acting out the events as I told the story. I lifted the empty, opaque pitcher from the table and tipped it forward for all to see it's lack of contents as I explained how Mary told Jesus there was no more wine. Fortunately, my pitcher had a narrow neck making the the bottom difficult to see. I walked across the room and collected a jug of water as Jesus told the servants to fill the pots to the brim. I did not fill my vessel quite that full :). The kids watched as the clear water entered my opaque pitcher. Next, I handed out brown paper bowls I found at Hobby Lobby, explaining that cups back then were made from pottery. The brown paper bowls were the closest thing I could find at a reasonable price that looked vaguely similar to pottery cups. I then poured the water from the opaque pitcher into their cups, only it wasn't water any more. It was wine (aka Kool-Aid). The kids could not believe their eyes! It was quite funny. What they had not known was that before class, I added Kool-Aid drops to the bottom of the empty opaque pitcher. This is why the pitcher absolutely has to be opaque. We ate bread and grapes with our Kool-Aid while I finished telling the story. Of course, they could not figure out how I had managed this miracle, so I let them in on my secret. Materials needed for the water transformation: 1 clear pitcher or bottle of water 1 Opaque pitcher Kool-Aid mix (drops or powder will work) Game The game for this lesson is quite easy. Items Needed: 13 Questions (Click for pdf) 13 Small Goody Gags 2 Buzzers (they come in a 4 pack, but we only need 2 for this game) How to play: Set up an area for two players to face each other with a buzzer in front of each. Read the first question aloud. The first person to hit his/her buzzer gets to answer the question. If they get the answer correct, they may choose a paper bag and return to their seat. They may open the bag immediately. A new player fills the empty position. If the player answers incorrectly, their opponent may try to answer the question. If that player answers correctly, he/she selects a bag and returns to their seat with a new player taking the empty place at the buzzer. If neither player answers correctly, give the correct answer and move on to the next question. This question may be used again later. Play continues with two players battling at a time until all 13 questions have been answered correctly. There are 13 questions and 13 bags. Each question may only be answered correctly once. The Goody Bags The goody bags may be filled with anything. I placed one piece of candy and one very small toy (erasers and animal crayons) in each bag. I put a sticker on each mini bag to spell out the topic of the lesson (Water Into Wine). :) The stickers were printed on plain white sheet labels. I used my circle cutter to cut out the letters.

Jesus turns water into wine This was a fun and pretty simple craft to do for this lesson. I'll include a jpeg of the page I made out of card stock and the lesson itself. I wish I could include pdf files that you could easily use to make your own, but I haven't figured out how to do that on blogger. The other teachers and I enjoyed thinking about how Jesus told His mother it wasn't His time to start doing miracles, but He obeyed His mother anyway. Funny to think of that, isn't it? Hopefully you can download this picture onto your computer and place it on your own desktop publisher software and stretch it out to fill a page. Print on card stock and cut out. Cut out the insert on the circle with the jar so that when the pages are twisted, you show how Jesus turned water into wine. Water is blue... Wine is red or purple...
