SORPRESA (SURPRISE)

As our travels begin, we arrive on the scene of Genesis 37 as Joseph is being sold into slavery by his jealous brothers. Next stop: Egypt. During Joseph’s forced exile, he befriends a servant named Donkor, who tells us all about Joseph’s adventures in this far-off place. Although Joseph missed his father and brothers dearly, God gave a joyful ending to this amazing story—one of unity, forgiveness, and harmony. These five lessons reveal how Joseph is a precursor of Jesus, foreshadowing what our Savior would do for His children to reunite us with our heavenly Father and grant us forgiveness of sins and harmony in the great family of faith.
