Easter Sunday school lesson

April 8, 2014 Ticia 8 Comments

I’ve been working on this Easter Sunday school lesson for a couple of weeks now.  Each time I think it’s done, I come back and tweak it a little more, and then tweak it again.

Finally, I can say 100% for sure it’s done.  I’ve bought the supplies for it, all the pictures are taken, and I’ve sent off the print request to the church (okay that last part is still in the works).

Easter lesson resurrection for kids

 

I was vaguely inspired by a couple of posts from my Easter pinterest board, but mainly this post that talked about the Stations of the Resurrection.  I’ve always been intrigued by the Stations of the Cross, but they add in so many things that aren’t in the Bible, I’ve never quite been comfortable teaching the concept.

But, these are straight from scripture, and I love them.  So, I got to thinking about how to represent the events to the kids visually.

Their fear as they went to the tomb, and discovered it empty.

Their great hope when they saw Jesus for the first time.

And the doubt they had, did it really happen?

In the end these are all precious memories the disciples had.  Memories of reconciliation, of grace, of great hope.  These are memories that change your life.  And for these men and women they did.

    Thanks for linking to my blog and the guest post by Sheila, who usually blogs at “Explore and Express”. 🙂 Just FYI (maybe for next year?), there is an alternative set of the traditional Stations of the Cross which is more biblically based. There are lots of resources about them online but one place to start might be this: https://www.usccb.org/prayer-and-worship/devotionals/stations-of-the-cross/scriptural-stations-of-the-cross.cfm

    I love this. Thanks so much for all of the work you put into it and sharing it. Could you clarify the tie-in with the cinnamon stick, please.

      Mary came to anoint Jesus with spices and oils after his death, so I used a cinnamon stick to represent that.
