Holli Moore gave Carson a bag of Resurrection Eggs for easter. The point is to open one egg a day for the twelve days leading up to Easter to remember Christ's journey and triumph over death. Each egg has a different bible verse and object in it. I used the eggs to lead chapel for the preschool this morning and they loved it. (once they realized there wasn't candy in them) I have listed the 12 items and bible verses below for you to think about and remember in reflection today. It's fun for kids and adults alike. Enjoy
1. Leaf-to symbolize palm Sunday (Mark 11:8-10)
2. Dime-to symbolize 30 pieces of silver (Matthew 26:14-15)
3. Cracker-to symbolize the Last Supper (Matthew 26:17-19)
4. Wash Cloth-to symbolize Christ washing the disciples feet (John 13:4-5)
5. Cup-to symbolize the cup He prayed would pass from him (Matthew 26:39)
6. Leather-to symbolize the cat of nine tails that flogged him (Matthew 27:2,26)
7. Thorn-to symbolize the crown (Matthew 27:29)
8. Cross-to symbolize the cross (John 19:17-18)
9. Die-to symbolize the lots cast for his clothes (Matthew 27:35)
10. Linen cloth-to symbolize the cloth Joseph wrapped him in (Matthew 27:59)
11. Stone-to symbolize the sealing of the tomb (Matthew 27:66)
12. Empty-to symbolize the empty tomb and our risen Savior (Matthew 28:5-6)
Have a wonderful rest of Holy Week
