Resurrection Rolls

4/3/2015

0 Comments

 
Last Easter, I made these with the kids. It was easy, it was fun, and the kids actually learned about Jesus, His death, and Resurrection in a way they cold understand. Included is the recipe and Bible references you might choose to use. We read from the Bible and while ate them we watched a video. Each child made their own roll and they were excited to be such an active part of it.

Resurrection Rolls

Ingredients:

·         One can of crescent roll dough

·         8 large marshmallows (or one for each roll you’ll be making)

·         Melted butter

·         Cinnamon sugar

·         Bible or Easter storybook

Instructions:

1. Read John 19 while the oven is pre-heating according to the package directions.

2. Unroll the crescent rolls. Explain that this is like the cloth they wrapped Jesus in.

3. Give your child a marshmallow and explain that it represents Jesus… all white and pure because He is perfect and never sinned

4. Roll the marshmallows in the melted butter. This symbolizes the embalming oils.

5. Roll the marshmallows in the cinnamon sugar. This is like the spices used to prepare his body for burial.

6. Wrap the marshmallow in the crescent roll cloth, pinching the dough together securely. Don’t worry about the shape so much, they’ll taste the same no matter how you roll or bundle them. This represents how they would have wrapped Jesus’ body.

7. Put the rolls in the oven (symbolizing the tomb) and bake for the amount of time specified on the package.

8. While the rolls are baking, read John 20:1-18.

9. Open the tomb and remove the rolls. When they’re cool enough to handle, break one open and discover what happened to the marshmallow. Jesus is risen! At this point, I also read 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18. Jesus is coming again!
