Reverend Laweh Otoo, an ordained minister, serves in Somanhyia, Ghana. World Vision played a huge role in supporting the children’s education and developing the spiritual well-being of the local families. Sponsorship through World Vision serves all children, sponsored and not sponsored, in the town.

Reverend Otoo shared “Before, most of the children did not go to school and even those who were in school did not have the needed support from their parents. World Vision has made parents aware of the importance of educating their children and can now see great improvements. Most parents used to go to Church without their children on Sundays, but thanks to World Vision, you will find most children on their way to Church with their parents by 7:30am on Sundays, fostering a stronger community all round”

JESUS BLESSES A THANKFUL MAN

Luke 17:11-19

Key Verse 17:16 “He threw himself at Jesus’ feet and thanked him—and he was a Samaritan.”

1. Look at Leviticus 13:45-46 and note how lepers were treated. How is it related to verses 12-13?

2. Why did Jesus instruct them to show themselves to the priests? (14; cf. Leviticus 13:37) How does this show their faith?

3. In what ways was one man different from the rest? (15-16) To whom did he attribute his healing?

4. How did Jesus bless the thankful Samaritan? (17-19)

5. What does this event teach about the importance of being thankful? (cf. 1 Thessalonians 5:18) Can you think of any other examples of thankfulness in the Bible?
