Living Last Supper
This Easter will be our 10th year of having what we call the "Living Last Supper" where all the kids take a part in the Easter Story. It's an amazing Sunday morning and many of the parents stay and watch. There are several scenes set up, the kids come and get into costume, each gets a name tag and takes a seat at a table. The 5th graders generally get the "part" of Jesus. We start with the Last Supper while 13 of them are at each table...we have communion bread and "wine" (white grape juice) and I take the church bulletin so that they can see the connection of celebrating the Last Supper every Sunday. Then do the garden scene, Pilot, cross, tomb, etc.
