Resurrection Rolls

Today's Scripture: The darkness at noon--Matthew 27:45





Since I'm not the greatest cook in the world, I was a little hesitant to do today's project. I was unsure of the results, but we decided to go ahead and try. Resurrection rolls are supposed to be another illustration of the empty tomb.

Supplies: crescent rolls
large marshmallows
cinnamon
sugar
butter

Melt the butter in a bowl.

Give each kid a triangle crescent roll to represent the tomb and a marshmallow to represent the body of Christ.

Dip the marshmallow in butter and roll in cinnamon and sugar mixture. This represents the oils and spices the body was anointed with upon burial.

Lay the marshmallow on the dough and carefully wrap it around the marshmallow. Make sure that all seams are pinched together well so that the marshmallow doesn't ooze out of the seams.

Bake according to the instructions on the crescent roll package.

When done, let cool. Then, have the kids break open the tomb and see that the body of Christ is no longer there!!
