Easter object. That person must use his or her finger to draw
the object on the back of the person in front of him or her.

6. Application
Things get distorted the farther we get from the source,
especially when we have our backs turned on God. In
today’s world, too often the meaning of Easter has
degraded to eggs, chocolate, and bunnies. But the true
meaning of Easter could be summarized by John 3:16.
