The Last Supper

Last night, we remembered the Last Supper with our boys. I used this http://www.ebibleteacher.com/children/lessons/lastsupper.htm as my guide.


Michael started off by reading Mark 14:10-25 and talking about betrayal. Then, we talked about how Christ's sacrifice was foreshadowed by the Passover.

Tenth Plague Christ's Sacrifice
Firstborn of all men and animals killed Firstborn of God killed
Only the blood of the lamb saved Israelites Only the blood of Christ saves us
This plague freed the Israelites from slavery to Egypt This sacrifice frees us from sin
Commemorated by all Israelites in a feast Commemorated by Christians in Lord's Supper

Then, we broke bread, drank from the cup, and prayed.

After that, we sang Jesus Loves Me, which was a RIOT!!

The whole thing ends with a game that you print from that website...it was fun and ended like this:

It was a special time, something that I would definitely like to do as a family every year. Wow! I think I may have just started a tradition!! I know our boys are young, but I think this is the perfect time to start!!

highlights:
Nate wanting some more yummy bread
Caden doing jumping jacks during the game
