Here is some devotional time to do with your child during this Holy Week
Prayer: Dear God, thank you for saving room for us by your side! We want to be there because we love you. Help us stick close to you. Amen! Reading: Matthew 26 (Click to read text) or Spark Bible, p. 462 Questions To Answer:
Reflection: It was time to celebrate the Passover and Jesus gathered his disciples into the Upper Room to eat together. It was there that Jesus foretold of Judas giving him up to the authorities. It was there that Jesus took bread, gave thanks, broke it and gave it to the men who had followed Him the last few years. He told them that it was His body, broken for them. Then, he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them telling them that it was His blood shed for them and for all people for the forgiveness of sins. It was a new promise between the Lord and His chosen people. They sang a song and went to a garden to pray. By the end of the night, Jesus would be arrested. --Chad Hershberger Activity: Cup Decorating (from Messy Church) Need: Paper cup, stickers, markers, glitter, etc. Decorate your paper cup any way you’d like so you can use it with your “last supper” meal. Food Idea: Remember the Last Supper together. Share bread and grape juice to remember Jesus’ body and blood. Add other Passover-style foods, such as hummus, olives, or lamb chops. Share some things you’ve learned about Jesus.
