Independence Day

On July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress unanimously adopted the Declaration of Independence. The Constitution provides the legal and governmental framework for the United States, however, the Declaration, with its eloquent assertion "all Men are created equal," is equally beloved by the American people.  Here are some lessons that discuss America’s Independence Day and how it relates to our dependence on Christ.

Father’s Day

The history of Father’s Day began with Mrs. John B. Dodd, of Washington, who first proposed the idea of a "father's day" in 1909. Mrs. Dodd wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart. William Smart, a Civil War veteran, was widowed when his wife (Mrs. Dodd's mother) died in childbirth with their sixth child. Mr. Smart was left to raise the newborn and his other five children by himself on a rural farm in eastern Washington state. It was after Mrs. Dodd became an adult that she realized the strength and selflessness her father had shown in raising his children as a single parent.  The first Father's Day was observed on June 19, 1910 in Spokane Washington. At about the same time in various towns and cities across American other people were beginning to celebrate a "father's day." In 1924 President Calvin Coolidge supported the idea of a national Father's Day. Finally in 1966 President Lyndon Johnson signed a presidential proclamation declaring the 3rd Sunday of June as Father's Day.   Click here for some bible lessons centered around Father’s Day.

Memorial Day

Memorial Day usually conjurs up thoughts of swimming and a nice three day weekend to kick off the summer.  Most pools open on Memorial Day for the summer so everyone is excited to break out their new swimsuits and dive in.  Polls indicate most Americans treat this day as just another day off.  Another poll found that only 28% of the people who were asked knew the real meaning of Memorial Day. Everyone should take time to remember those who have died for our country and the freedoms we share... even the pool opening for the summer.  Click here to hear lessons on Memorial Day.

Mother’s Day

“Every wise woman builds her house.”  We learn so much from mothers.  Someone once said that they learned religion from their mom when she said “You better pray that this comes out of the carpet!”  The wise mother knows that Betty Crocker is a cookbook for the kitchen but the bible is the cookbook for the soul.  A child first receives wisdom from their parents.  Click here to find some lessons that celebrate Mother’s and the important role they have in the family.

Easter (Resurrection Day)

The greatest story ever told is the story of Jesus and the resurrection.  Today we celebrate Easter with many traditions passed down to us.  Ever wonder what eggs and a bunny have to do with Easter?  Here is a collection of lessons celebrating the resurrection of Christ as well as some information on the pagan traditions associated with Easter. 

St Patrick’s Day Celebration

Maewyn Succat had Good News… and it has nothing to do with good luck.    On March 17^th, each year many people celebrate St. Patrick’s Day by wearing green clothes, drinking green beer, participating in parades, dyeing rivers green, and thanking the luck of the Irish.  Who is Saint Patrick and why is there a holiday to honor him?  Click here to learn more.

New Years Celebration

Here is a collection of lessons that have a “New Years” theme.  New Years celebrations often involve parties and resolutions... but the real focus for the New Year should be always on Christ.  In Christ, we are made new, old things are passed away as stated in 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.  Click here to find lessons that are for the New Year celebration.

Christmas Tradition

Thanksgiving in America

In November, America will continue a tradition begun centuries ago: the celebration of a Day of Thanksgiving. The origin of this tradition is commonly attributed to the Pilgrims in 1621, even though some Thanksgiving services did occur elsewhere in America as early as 1607. While Thanksgiving celebrations became common in New England, they did not begin to spread southward until the American Revolution, when Congress issued eight separate national Thanksgiving Proclamations.  Click here to read more.
