Holy Week | Day 4


Jesus and his friends sat down for a big meal, it was a special occasion so everyone was there. Jesus took the bread like he did every meal and he thanked God for providing it, but them he said something new. Jesus told his friends that this bread was like his body and broke the bread apart, and that the wine was like his blood. He said this was a new promise made from God, and that this promise would forgive people for the things they did that upset God. Then Jesus told his friends this would be his last meal with them.


Holy Week | Day 4 All over the world people still use bread and wine as symbols to remember what Jesus did at Easter.

Lord Jesus, thank you for giving us symbols to help us understand. Amen
