Dear Parents,
This week, we’ll learn about “Joseph Taken to Egypt” (Genesis 37; 39-46; 50). Joseph’s brothers were jealous of him and sold him into slavery in Egypt. Despite facing injustice, Joseph remained faithful, and God was with him. Joseph rose to power by interpreting Pharaoh’s dreams, saving Egypt and his family from famine. When Joseph’s brothers came to him for food, he forgave them, acknowledging that God used their actions for good to save many lives. Joseph’s story reminds us that even in difficulties, God has a plan for His people.
I hope this message will inspire your child to grow in the love and light of Jesus. To help reinforce the lesson at home, please discuss the following points with your child:
- God’s Presence with Joseph: Share how God was with Joseph in every situation, helping him through hard times.
- Forgiveness and Trust in God: Talk about how Joseph forgave his brothers and trusted God’s greater plan for his life.
- God’s Plan for Good: Discuss how God turned Joseph’s difficult experiences into blessings for many people.
Pray with your child, thanking God for His plans and asking for trust in His goodness even during hard times.
Grace and blessings in Christ,
Danny Sungshin Park
Pastor of Children’s Cell
