Read the Story from the Bible together as a family.
After you have read it, watch the Bible Story Video shown during the Sunday Kids Service. Questions will include conversations about the Bible story to allow you and your children to reflect on the biblical truth and share your thoughts about the video with each other.
Included are coloring pages, activity sheets, games, additional questions and ideas to engage with the Bible story further at home with your child.

WHAT YOU NEED: Kool-Aid Packets, small cups, water, paper, and a paint brush

WHAT YOU SAY: “Mary was friends with Jesus. She wanted to show Jesus how much she loved Him, so she poured perfume on Jesus’ feet and wiped them with her hair. This was such a happy day for Mary, because Mary got to be with Jesus and show Jesus that she loved Him. And soon, there would be another happy day—a happy day on Easter when we celebrate that Jesus is alive! Who is alive? Jesus is alive!”
