The Brick Easter

Last Sunday at Foothills we had our monthly celebration gathering at Ferntree Gully North Primary School. Being Palm sunday and having loads of kids we went through the wek of Easter in the life of Jesus, commencing on Palm Sunday and going through to Easter Sunday. It is great to be reminded again of what happened in that week. It starts with Jesus being cheered like a home coming champion as he enteres Jeruslaem and ends with much of the same crowd wanting his blood less than 5 days later.

Also yesterday I went through the stories again with my 3 RE classes at FTG North PS with the grade 5's and 6's. I love to use the Brick Testament stuff, which seems to make it come alive. Loads of questions always follow, why would Jesus do that? Whay doesn't he save himself? Did he do that for me? Why would they kill a good man? Is he really the son of God?
