JOHN 4

Week of 30th May 2026

Welcome to this week’s Grace Kids @Home, a recap of last Saturday's Grace Kids lesson.

We’ve prepared a short question guide that will enable you as a parent to follow up with your children on the lesson they had. For effective learning at Grace Kids we believe in the 3 step learning cycle – presentation (in class), feedback (in class) and follow up/repetition (at home). We encourage you to take time every week and complete the learning process for the kids so that the truth of the Gospel will be sustained in their hearts.

Before beginning the discussion ensure you have less distractions, try to make the discussion informal, please do not exceed 20 minutes in conducting the discussion.

First, ask the children the questions and note down their answers thereafter read the answers to them and help them remember.

The important discussion-questions to ask your children are:

1. a) Who did Jesus meet at a well? b) Why was it unusual that Jesus spoke with the Samaritan woman? c) How do you think the woman felt after she met Jesus? d) What did Jesus mean by “living water,” and how does it lead to eternal life?
2. How does this story connect to Christ?
3. Can you recite the memory verse – ‘1 John 3:5?'

1. The Bible story

JESUS AND THE SAMARITAN WOMAN

Jesus had been teaching in the land of Judea, and now it was time to leave. So, Jesus began traveling back to the land of Galilee. On His way, He traveled through the land of Samaria. He stopped at one of the towns where there was a well.
The sun was high in the sky, and Jesus was tired from traveling. A woman who lived in Samaria came to the well to get water. Jesus said to the woman, “Give me a drink.”
The woman was surprised. “You are a Jew,” she said. “Why are you talking to me? I am a Samaritan.”
Jesus said, “I asked you for a drink. You do not know who I am. If you did, you would have asked me for a drink. I would give you living water.”
“Sir,” the woman said, “this well is deep, and you do not have a bucket. Where do you get living water?”
Jesus said, “Anyone who drinks the water from this well will be thirsty again, but anyone who drinks the water I give will never get thirsty again.”
“Sir, I want living water,” the woman said. “If I am never thirsty again, I won’t have to keep coming to this well to get water with my bucket.”
Jesus knew everything about the woman. The woman could tell Jesus was wise, so she said, “I know the Messiah is coming.”
Jesus said, “I am the Messiah.”
Just then, Jesus’ followers arrived. They were amazed that Jesus was talking to a Samaritan woman. The woman left and hurried back into town. She told her friends and neighbors, “Come, see a man who knows everything about me. Could this be the Messiah?”
The people went out to meet Jesus, and many Samaritans from that town believed in Jesus because of what the woman said. They asked Jesus to stay with them, and He stayed there two days.
The people listened to Jesus, and many more believed. They said to the woman, “We no longer believe because of what you said. We have heard for ourselves and know that this really is the Savior of the world.”

2. Christ Connection

Jesus offered the woman something no one else could give her: living water. Jesus wasn’t talking about water to drink, but about the Holy Spirit. Jesus gives the Holy Spirit to those who trust in Him.
