介绍

复活节主日课程活动：为了赎我们的罪，耶稣死在了十字架上，给了我们回到神身边的一条路。

主题

十字架，复活节，宽恕，救赎

材料

胶带

5块大的海报纸板（至少18英寸×24英寸）

时间

约10分钟

说明

做：

用胶带在八到十英尺之间贴出两条平行线。留出足够的空间让孩子们站在其中一条线后面排队。这两条线将代表一个深谷的边缘。用海报纸板作一个大十字架，将其放在两条线之间，如下图所示。然后，让孩子们当这个十字架如一座桥一样走过去，到达谷的另一边与神在一起。在继续之前，让孩子们都站在一条线的后面排队。

说：

有时候我们做错了事。有人可以举一个做错事的例子吗？（允许回答，如果需要的话提供帮助。）

当我们做了一些错事时，不管多么微小，都叫做罪。罪使我们与神隔离。让我们假装这两条线是一个深谷的边缘。我们在一边，神在另一边等着我们。然而，因为我们有时会做错事，我们无法过去。有人认为他/她能一跃而过到深谷的另一边吗？

耶稣死在十字架上，为了让我们的罪得到宽恕。当我们说对不起时，耶稣会原谅我们的罪，祂会为我们走向天国的神开辟一条道路。（拿起海报纸板制作一个十字架，放在两条线之间。迅速将这些部件粘在一起以增加稳定性。）

十字架就像一座桥。因为有了耶稣，我们有了回到神身边的方式。（让孩子们手牵着手走到另一边。）

POWER OF THE CROSS

Easter Sunday lesson activity: Jesus died on the cross to forgive our sins, and give us a way back to God.

TOPICS:

Cross, Easter, Forgiveness, Salvation

MATERIALS:

Masking tape

5 large pieces of posterboard (At least 18 inches by 24 inches)

DURATION:

Approximately 10 minutes

WHAT YOU WILL DO:

Use the masking tape to create two parallel lines eight to ten feet apart. There should be plenty of room for the children to line up behind one of the lines. The lines will represent the edges of a deep canyon. You will use the poster board to create a large cross, and place it between the two lines like the example below. Then you will have the children use the cross like a bridge to walk across to the other side of the canyon to be with God. Have the children all line up behind one of the lines before continuing.

WHAT YOU WILL SAY:

Sometimes we do things that are wrong. Can anyone give me an example of something that is wrong? (Allow for answers and provide help if needed.)

When we do something that is wrong, no matter how small, it is called sin. Sin separates us from God. Let's pretend that these two lines are the edges of a deep canyon. We are on one side and God is waiting for us on the other. However, because we sometimes do things that are wrong, we cannot get across. Does anyone think he or she can jump all the way to the other side of the canyon?

Jesus died on the cross so our sins can be forgiven. When we say we are sorry, Jesus forgives our sins and He makes a way for us to get across to where God is in Heaven. (Take the poster board pieces and create a cross between the two lines. Quickly tape the pieces together for added stability.)

The cross is like a bridge. Because of Jesus, we have a way to get back to God. (Let the children walk across to the other side while holding hands.)
