Easter is a huge holiday for Christians as we celebrate the time when Christ bore our sins on the cross and died with them; then a few days later He rose again! Death's darkness was pushed aside with the stone that morning of Christ's resurrection, promising new life to all who come to Him. Romans 6:4b, "...just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life."
I am so happy the kids can learn this at school, as well...and not just hear about eggs and chocolate bunnies. Although I do love some Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Eggs and Easter M&M's. :) Haidyn's class had an egg hunt and also learned the Resurrection story through "Resurrection Eggs"...just ask her about it and you will get a detailed Bible lesson! Kealon's class had a Passover Seder and learned a ton about the meanings and promises behind Jewish tradition...which is also the foundation of our own faith. Enjoy the pictures and have a very happy Easter Sunday!
