  Kids' Lenten Scavenger Hunt!!

  We'll post one item, plus a corresponding bible verse, every Wednesday and Sunday during Lent, beginning with Ash Wednesday. Save all the items and the bible verses in a small shoe box or container so you can re-tell the story of Jesus as he walks toward the cross, is crucified and is resurrected. (Items are chosen in proper chronology for our journey with Jesus.)
  Good luck finding everything!

  Sun., Feb 28th--Item 3: Find a small piece of red cloth to remember this scripture from Matthew 27:28 "And they stripped Jesus and put a scarlet robe on him."
  Wed., Feb 24th--Item 2: Collect three dimes (equalling 30 cents) to remind you of the betrayal of Jesus by his friend and disciple, Judas. The Bible verse is Matthew 26: 14-16 "Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve disciples, went to the leading priests and asked, “How much will you pay me to betray Jesus to you?” And they gave him thirty pieces of silver. From that time on, Judas began looking for an opportunity to betray Jesus."
  Sun., Feb 21st--Item 1: Find a small piece of bread or cracker that won't go bad. Oyster crackers are perfect if you have them.
  Scripture verse from the Last Supper: Matthew 26:26 "While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, 'Take and eat; this is my body.'"
