Using bread to remember
Children's Activity
Teachers or Parents: Take the bread used for the object lesson
and eat it as a class. While eating, ask, "Why do you suppose the
two disciples walking along didn't recognize Jesus?" (Perhaps
their grief overcame them. Dead people do not walk around after
they have died.) Why might bread make them think of Jesus?
(Perhaps bread is like a body. It is soft [feel your upper arm or
upper leg for comparison]. Maybe they remembered what Jesus said
in the Upper Room when he broke the bread and told them to eat it
"in remembrance" of him.)
