Lesson Outlines:<br />

Heaven is <strong>the</strong> most beautiful place that any one can see and go to. We all would like to go to<br />

heaven. This is because in heaven we can see Jesus Christ. We can also see all <strong>the</strong> saints who did<br />

good things and Jesus Christ was happy with <strong>the</strong>m. They will all have crowns on <strong>the</strong>ir heads and will<br />

be dressed in very nice white cloth. Everybody is going to look like a princess or a prince. We can<br />

also see all <strong>the</strong> angels with all <strong>the</strong>ir kinds and shapes. Do you like to see <strong>the</strong> angels? Yes we will see<br />

hundreds and hundreds <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m in heaven. We will also be with our good friends and family.<br />

Heaven itself will be full <strong>of</strong> joy and nice things that would make us happy all <strong>the</strong> time. No one<br />

cries in heaven or feels bad, hurt or tired.<br />

Everybody in heaven will be singing and happy. Every body will be having good time all <strong>the</strong> time.<br />

We also will be praying. But <strong>the</strong> best <strong>of</strong> all is that we will be with Jesus Christ Himself and will be<br />

able to see Him. This time it will be for real not just a picture like we see Him now.<br />
