Mary Zach welcomed everyone and read a book on the story of Easter.
Followed by singing and dancing.
There were several craft projects everyone could make. Easter cards were being made here.
Another fun project was making stained glass crosses to hang in a window.
They could also take a turn at Bingo.
For refreshments, everyone had a Resurrection roll. Here, Barb Handy is showing how they are made. You take a crescent roll and flatten it out. This represents the linens Jesus was wrapped in. You then take a large white marshmallow, which represents our sinless Savior, and roll the marshmallow in butter, representing the oil Jesus was anointed with. Next, roll it in spices just as Jesus was wrapped in linen and spices. You then seal the marshmallow in the roll just as Jesus was sealed in the tomb. Place in the oven and bake.
Here Joan Tiemeyer is showing what happens after they have baked.
You tear them open and just like the tomb, they are empty. The marshmallow disappeared. Jesus is risen! It really was neat to see!
Thank you Mary Zach for planning this fun celebration and to all those that helped!
