Using the cross marked on our foreheads on Ash Wednesday, Ms. Kim teaches kids about the Fall, our need for a savior, and God’s plan to save us and give us life by sending his Son to die for our sins. In light of these truths, Ms. Kim discusses the phrases we hear on Ash Wednesday: “You are dust, and to dust you shall return” and “Repent and believe in the gospel,” relating them to the overarching Lenten theme of turning back to God.
