The lesson “Easter – Jesus’ Sacrifice and the Meaning of Communion” teaches the children the Easter story, emphasizing the sacrifice of Jesus and the special “communion” meal He shared with His disciples. The children will come to understand communion in worship and at church to represent the body and blood of Christ and that it serves as a way to remember Jesus’ death for us. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 9-11 years, and is the 47th lesson in the 1st Year Core Curriculum Set and part of the “Holidays” unit.
