Bible Story

Jesus and Zacchaeus

19 He entered Jericho and was passing through. ² And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector and was rich. ³ And he was seeking to see who Jesus was, but on account of the crowd he could not, because he was small in stature. ⁴ So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was about to pass that way. ⁵ And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for I must stay at your house today.” ⁶ So he hurried and came down and received him joyfully. ⁷ And when they saw it, they all grumbled, “He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner.” ⁸ And Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor. And if I have defrauded anyone of anything, I restore it fourfold.” ⁹ And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham. ¹⁰ For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the

lost

This is a fun and meaningful Bible story for the children to take part in. They love to act out the story and sing the Zacchaeus song.

  Zacchaeus Was A Wee Little Man

Zacchaeus was a wee little man. A wee little man was he.
He climbed up in the sycamore tree, the Savior for to see.

And when the Savior passed that way, he looked up in the tree, 

And he said, “Zacchaeus, you come down from there; 

For I’m going to your house today, for I’m going to your house today.

Key Verse:

For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost." Luke 19:10 Zacchaeus was sorry for what he had done and confessed his sin, Jesus forgave him and said, "Today salvation has come to this house."  Zacchaeus was a little man with a big problem, SIN! But he met Jesus and his life was changed. It doesn't matter if you are short or tall, when you meet Jesus, he will change your life too. There was a request to include words to the songs we sing. I will attempt to do this when time permits. Tune of "Jesus Loves Me" Jesus called them one by one, Peter, Andrew, James and John, Next, came Philip, Thomas too, Matthew and Bartholomew. Chorus- Yes, Jesus called them, Yes, Jesus called them, Yes, Jesus called them, He called them one by one. James the one they called the less, Simon, also Thaddeus, Twelfth apostle Judas made, Jesus was by him betrayed.             Jesus Loves the Little Children Jesus loves the little children All the children of the world Red and yellow, black and white They are precious in His sight Jesus loves the little children of the world      Praise Him, Praise Him Praise Him, praise Him, All you little children, God is love, God is love. Praise Him, praise Him, All you little children, God is love, God is love. Add optional verses: Love Him... Oh You Can't Keep Jesus' Love in a Box Oh you can't keep Jesus' (love) in a box, love in a box, (love) in a box Oh you can't keep Jesus' (love) in a box, cuz His (love) will come a bubbling through (jar) (S0 I'll just keep Jesus' love in my heart) We Love We love because He first loved us  (repeat 3 times) Reminders: Please help us by pulling your child's folder, diapers, snacks and drinks. Please continue to save Box Tops for Education. If your child is potty trained or in training please send them in clothes  that are easy to pull on and off. We help them but part of the training is  for them to learn to do it themselves. Loose fitting elastic waistbands work best.
