Something to Think About
What makes a ‘good person’?
Who in your life is a really good person?
The Story
In today’s story, the Pharisees and teachers question Jesus because they have seen some of his disciples eating without washing their hands. The rules and processes for hand washing were very complex and were an important part of the Jewish law. Jesus says that it is what comes from within us that really matters. We need to have good hearts, speak kind words, and let our actions match what we say.

CLEAN ON THE INSIDE
You will need: a worksheet for each child, coloured markers or colouring pencils
Jesus wants us to be clean on the inside... and to show this by the friendly words that come out of our mouths.
- Invite the children to draw a picture inside the colourful frame, where they are saying something kind to another person.
- Children may need some assistance to write down the words in a speech bubble on their picture.
