Day 19: Sunday School

The Prompt: What is your first memory regarding Sunday School?

I think my earliest memories of Sunday School were when I was at Awanas.  They could have been held at the same area.  I would have been about four or five.  I remember sitting around in a group on a carpeted floor with other kids and one of the teachers helping me.  I remember having my Cubbies book, the first step in the Awanas program, and the teacher was explaining to me what I needed to do in the book.  There could have been another time I was there when I was coloring a picture.  I don't remember any of the lessons.

I remember Sunday School a little better when I was six.  We were living somewhere else at the time, and the lessons were held in old classroom buildings (I think).  I remember the very first lesson I had there.  I had been with my parents in the main church building, and then they ushered the kids into another building so we could have our own service.  The teacher told us a redemption story, and I remember being scared at what would happen if I didn't accept Jesus.  I later came to the decision to accept Him at home with my parents, but that lesson planted the seed to accepting Jesus.
