The word used to describe the little wicker basket Moses'
mom put him in, in the book of Exodus, 'Tebah' is the same Hebrew word
for the ark that Noah built. It means floating vessel. Both were used to save
a race of people but in totally different ways.
The first Sunday of November is celebrated as World Sunday School Day
throughout the world. Did you know that Sunday Schools were originally
literally Schools: they were places where poor children could learn to
read? The Bible was the textbook used for learning to read. The Sunday
School movement which began in Britain in the 1780s can be traced to the
work of Robert Raikes (1736-1811). Stemming from this movement, the
Indian Sunday School Union (ISSU) was formed in January 1876 in
Allahabad, to educate poor children and promote Christian education and
nurture through its curriculums and training programmes
Our Sunday School continues to be greatly benefitted by following the
ISSU curriculum.

St Andrew's Day, celebrated on November 30 each year, is considered a
national holiday in Scotland and across Europe. St. Andrew, the Apostle,
was with Jesus on some very momentous occasions. He was a true
missionary for Christ, preaching in Greece and Russia. St. Andrew died a
martyr and was crucified on a saltire, or an "X" shaped cross, in Greece in
60 AD.
