Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:15

This booklet is an initial release of lessons for Sunday Schools by the US sub center of Mahebere Kidusan. There are 44 lessons in this booklet. It is intended for KG students, but may be used for upper level grade students.

The Lessons are compiled from the Old Testament, the New Testament, and teachings of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church in no particular order or sequence. Some lessons are more appropriate for certain church calendars. Since this edition is not outlined according to the annual calendar of the church, the teacher may select appropriate lessons for certain occasions and church calendars i.e. Nativity, Easter or etc.

Some of The Lessons have specified teaching aids, but most do not. It would generally be helpful to have a flip chart or a big size picture that illustrates the day’s teaching.

Coloring is primarily the choice of Activity for most of The Lessons, but the teacher may add any applicable

 Activity. Coloring pictures are not provided with this booklet, but the following websites can be helpful resources to obtain lesson related pictures:

Coloring pictures may also be made available on Mahebere Kidusan’s website of the US sub center at www.mahiberekidusan.org.

This booklet is the first of subsequent editions that will be more customized to certain ages and grade levels. We hope that teachers and students will find The Lessons in this booklet helpful.

Glory to God the Almighty!
