Easter π
These sessions go through the events of the last week of Jesusβ life and will help children to understand the significance of who he was and what he did for us.
Hosanna
We donβt know how many of those who shouted βHosannaβ on Palm Sunday then shouted βCrucify him!β a few days later. How easily are any of us influenced by what our friends say and do? Something important to talk about.
Jesus Clears the Temple
The thought of Jesus being angry might surprise some children. A good opportunity here to think about what makes us angry and when it is okay to express that anger.
It's Good to Give
βWhenever you do something for someone in need itβs as if youβre doing it for meβ. An important lesson for children β that Jesus loves us to give and puts great value on things that are especially sacrificial for us.
Last Supper
How do we serve communion in our churches and why do we do it? We learn here what Jesus taught about sharing bread and wine.
Good Friday
Sharing this story with children is so sad, and it is horrible to think of Jesus being so afraid just before his arrest. BUT we know it wasnβt the end β Sunday is coming!
Easter Sunday
A day of triumph and joy as Jesus rose from the dead and proved to be just who he said he was. Hallelujah!
