Chapel Funny

I forgot to blog this last week and remembered it in chapel today. We have a school-wide worship service for 45 minutes once a week. Last week was BreakOut Groups...this is where we split into multi-grade small groups and do a little lesson together. It's a great mentoring opportunity for the older kids, and the young ones LOVE to hang out with anyone older. Well, I used a demonstration to introduce the lesson before we split up. We are doing a series on "When Jesus Comes for Dinner", and that week discussed the wedding in Cana where Jesus turned water into wine. The writer of the curriculum recommends a demo of pouring water into another pitcher that secretly has koolaid powder in the bottom of it...thus, pouring out water that becomes "wine" once it enters the other pitcher. Well, the demo went really well...too well. Some of my little kiddos got these profoundly amazed looks on their faces. Yes, they thought they were witnessing the miracle ALL OVER AGAIN! HAHA! Seeing their reactions, I had to quickly let them know that I was "playing a trick on them" and that I wasn't...Jesus. Note to self...remember the literal nature of K-2nd graders!!! *sigh*
