Let's learn more about Jesus!

During the weekends my dad, brother and I went to Northcote to learn about God and Jesus. 

Once we got there, Chaim and I raced to St. Joseph's hall as fast as motor bikes  because we thought that we were late however, we weren't because it was only 1:30 pm and our sessions start at 2:30 pm so we had one hour to spare. Finally after an hour had past, all the kids arrived so we started our sessions.

The first thing that we did was we played hangman. Father Mario had chosen a very hard three letter word. We lost because he already had drew hangman. The next activity that we did was we made the word love by cutting a paper into four parts. It was hard because we only had an A4 piece of paper.

Later on, we coloured in our word with crayons and wrote a letter to Jesus. After that, we cut a piece of paper and we folded it into a triangle pattern. When everyone was finished I opened it and I couldn't believe my eyes because it transformed into a cross. 

After that, we raced to the park as fast as cheetahs racing to catch their meal. Once we got there, the K.F.L teachers (Kids For Life) brought us some fired chickens and everyone went running to the fried chicken pieces and within seconds it was all gone. My least favourite part was that Chaim, all the other children and I had to go but at least I got to learn about Jesus.

I had a ton of fun learning about Jesus because I got to write a letter to him and meet new friends.

Come on, let's keep dancing with Jesus!

I danced in the morning when the world was begun
I danced in the Moon, and the stars, and the Sun
I came down from Heaven and I danced on Earth
At Bethlehem I had my birth.

Dance then, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!
And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He!

I danced for the scribe and the pharisee
They would not dance, they wouldn't follow me
So I danced for the fishermen James and John
They come with me and the Dance went on:

Dance then, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!
And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He!

I danced on the Sabbath and cured the lame
The holy people, they said it was a shame!
They whipped and stripped and then hung me high
Left me there on a cross to die!

Dance then, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!
And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He!

I danced on a Friday when the sky turned black
It's hard to dance with the devil on your back
They buried my body and they thought I'd gone
But I am the Dance and I still go on!

Dance then, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!
And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He!

They cut me down but I leap up high
I am the Life that will never never die!
I live in you if you live in Me
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!

Dance then, wherever you may be
For I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!
And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He!

Dance then, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!
And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He!

Dance then, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!
And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He
