Aim

To encourage children to protect each other. To become familiar with the story of Jesus' arrest.

Lesson

Begin by revising what was taught in the previous lesson. Inform children that the important people, who were doing wrong, didn't like what Jesus said to them and they planned to have him arrested. One of Jesus' friends helped them.

Share with children an account of Jesus' arrest and Peter's attack on Malchus (Luke 22:47-54).

Activity

Following discussion, role play more appropriate ways to protect a friend.
