This past Sunday, the Pre-K and Kindergarten Sunday school classes had a special guest to help act out our Bible story. Jesus! Twelve friends were honored to take part in Jesus’s special “Remember Meal” as we learned about the night of “The Last Supper.”
We imagined that we were in a special room with Jesus and his disciples. Jesus knew that this was his last night with his disciples before he would die on the cross. Jesus washed his disciples’ feet to show them how much he loved them. Usually, washing someone’s feet was a servant’s job. Jesus did it to serve his disciples in love and told them they should also serve others in love.
We learned that one of Jesus’s friends betrayed him. Jesus told Judas to “go and do what you must do.” It was all part of God’s plan. Jesus then took the bread and the wine and told us how to use it to remember him. The bread reminds us of his body and how it was given for us. The wine will remind us of what Jesus would do to take away the sin of the world. It was a very special meal!
We learned that we still celebrate this special “Remember Meal” in big church during something called Communion. Communion helps us to remember what Jesus did for us. We remember that he loves us and that he gave his body and blood for us on the cross.
