Enjoy your Crates!

Special thanks all the families who picked up their Easter Crates today.
We hope you enjoy them!

This crate is designed to give your family a variety of activities throughout Passion Week to focus on the death and resurrection of Christ. Please use the props and activities to facilitate discussion with your entire family leading up to Easter Sunday.

Resurrection Eggs:
Starting on Palm Sunday with Egg #1, open an egg each day as a family and look up the scripture corresponding to the item. Spend some time answering the questions and talking about the week leading up to Christ's resurrection.

Family Dinner Discussions:
Please use these cards during your family dinner time to create a fun atmosphere
centered around Christ.

Easter Scriptures:
Please place these scriptures strategically around the house so that the entire family can read and meditate on them throughout the week.

Crucifixion Nail:
Use this prop to start a discussion with your family on what crucifixion was really like. Pass it around and have each member of your family share how the cross of Christ has made a difference in their life.

Easter Outfit Hangers:
Place these on the hangers of your children's Easter outfits once they go to bed on Saturday night. If you have time, write a note to your child on the back.
