Activity

one person behind another.

except to draw on the person’s back in
front of them.

pencil and a piece of paper.

5. Show the last person in each
line a simple image of an 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. This continues until the
drawing reaches the first person
in line. He or she must draw it on
the piece of paper.

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.
