WORLD SUNDAY SCHOOL
LESSONS AND HANDOUTS FOR THIS WEEK
World Sunday School first appeared on the Internet on May 14, 2003. Since that time, this independent website has supplied weekly graded Sunday School lessons and handouts (and, often, coloring pages) to help Sunday School teachers worldwide. We hope to help preserve the Sunday School movement which had its glory days in the 1930's. In a time when so many churches are downsizing Sunday Schools, we aim to preserve this Christian teaching to enrich the life of children and youth worldwide.

The Holy Priesthood - A Generation Changed
October 23, 2022
What does it mean to be a priest exactly? Has God really called believers to be a Kingdom of Priests? If so what does that entail? I hope as the weeks go by in this study that we can answer all these questions and learn everything that God would reveal to us in His word about this. God will never ask us to do anything that He will not make provisions for us to succeed! In this lesson I feel led to look at the choices we make and how they can affect our family for generations to come. Also, I pray we can point out just how God honors those who love, trust, and obey Him to a thousand generations!
GOD Bless You All. : )

CURRENT LESSON PLAN - Moses: We Need Water…Living Water!, by Lisa DeVinney
Teacher’s Notes: Last week we learned about one of the best known miracles from the life of Moses…the parting of the Red Sea. We read about how God led the nation of Israel right through the walls of water, on dry ground; then released those walls onto the Egyptian army, to deliver the Israelites from them for good. We also learned that the Israelites hadn’t trusted God to deliver them, but had complained to Moses, instead. Today’s lesson takes us down the wilderness road only three days, and to the next test for the Israelites. We’re going to find out, today, how the Israelites responded to not having water to drink. Then we’re going to see how the Lord provided sweet water for them… and Living Water, for us.

Oh precious Living Water,
Pour over me, today.
And quench this thirsty soul of mine
Forever, Lord, I pray.
Not like the bitter water
That Moses turned to sweet.
For that was temporary;
a thirst doomed to repeat.But oh, Your Living Water
Can cleanse me from my sin.
It is the cure I long for,
To never thirst again.
