Send us a textWillie wants to fit in with the most popular boys at school, but Max and Lucas enjoy teasing others. After they trip up Gary and insult Candy, they plan a cruel “pet day” prank—letting Carmen's mouse out to be chased by a cat—and pressure Willie to help. Willie prays, thinks about how he'd feel if it were his dog Coco, and quietly says “no,” even though it costs him their friendship. In Sabbath School he adds a “Jesus footprint,” thankful for courage to do what's right. A real-life story about peer pressure, kindness, and the strength God gives to choose good friends. Talk about it:Why did Willie want to be friends with Max and Lucas, and what did he notice about how they treated others?What helped Willie say “no” when he felt pressured?How can you tell the difference between a real friend and a hurtful friend?What's one kind choice you can make for someone at school this week?Visit our website: kathyskidsstorytime.orgWe'd love to hear from you!To reach us quickly, click the “Send us a text” link at the top of the episode description.Or write to us by mail:Kathy's Kids StorytimePO Box 44270Charlotte, NC 28215-0043

These include daily Bible reading, studying the Spirit of Prophecy, engaging in family worship, and nurturing love and harmony within marriage and family.This is the first message in the series “The Power of Vows and Commitments,” which explores all items on the Stewardship Commitment Card.

Send us a textSammy loves Sabbath—except for those tight shoes…and Pete, the class pest. After a Sabbath School lesson about loving enemies (Matthew 5:39, 44), Sammy heads to school determined to do right. When Pete flicks his ear and later tries to copy during a surprise math test, Sammy wants to tell on him. A quick prayer changes his plan: maybe Pete isn't mean—maybe he's confused and afraid to ask for help. Instead of getting even, Sammy asks the teacher if he can tutor Pete, and he spots a “Jesus footprint” in his own heart—God giving power to do the hard thing. A real-life story about kindness, courage, and choosing what Jesus would do.Talk about it:What does Jesus ask us to do when people are unkind?How did prayer help Sammy make a better choice?When is it hard for you to be kind, and what could you do instead?Who might need your help at school this week?Visit our website: kathyskidsstorytime.orgWe'd love to hear from you.To reach us quickly, click the “Send us a text” link at the top of the episode description.Or write to us by mail:Kathy's Kids StorytimePO Box 44270Charlotte, NC 28215-0043
