Resurrection Rolls

This is a tradition that we started with the boys about 5 or 6 years ago. They are our Resurrection rolls....we always have fun with these...

You start with a marshmallow which represents Christ's body
You dip it in butter...representing the oil that they put on his body in the tomb
Then dip in cinnamon to represent the spices
Roll it in dough and seal the edges (represents the tomb being sealed)
see all the nice little tombs?
Let them rise (3 days symbolically) and then bake....mmmm...smells yummy!


Take them out of the oven, open the "tomb" and see that it is empty!

"He is not here: for he is risen, as he said"
Matthew 28:6

Happy Easter!

That is a really great idea! Why have you waited this long to share it with us all?! That is a for sure thing for the Goddard family next year!
