The way our family celebrates the relentless love of Jesus and His sacrifice

Our family is big on creating traditions...in this season of the year, we really strive to create opportunities to think of Jesus and the sacrifice that He made for us...this works for us, and if it gives you an idea of what you might want to do with your family, that is excellent. We do it all here...Ash Wednesday, Lent, Passover, Palm Sunday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday and Easter. I am putting this here, not because I think it is the end-all, but for my children if they choose to do it when they are grown...hope you enjoy it as well. Thanks for stopping by.

Day 10 Living Water


John 4

The story of the Samaritan woman at the well.

Day 9 The Choosing of the Twelve


Reading for today is Matthew 10.
This is when Jesus calls the disciples out and gives them specific instructions as to what He expects them to do.

Day 8 Nicodemus


John 3:1-21
This is baby Jesus and the world (John 3:16)...maybe better on it's side.

Day 7 Turning Water into Wine


John 2:1-12


Goblet with half water/half wine

Day 6 Choosing of the First Disciples


John 1:35-51


Made 4 fish hooks...

Day 5 Temptation in the Desert


Luke 4:1-13, Psalm 91:11-12


For Satan, I just used black and made eyes...for the temptation, I made 3 apples. Jesus has the yellow around His head.
(Sorry...apparently many of these will be blurry. If I wait to get clearer ones, I won't get this done this year. Next year I will make better pictures...)

Day 4 John the Baptist & Jesus' Baptism

Luke 3:1-23 and Isaiah 40:3-4
Tried to make Jesus with the yellow halo thing to make a distinction between him and other people. The white thing on His head is a dove.
