Godly Play: the faces of Easter

This is an interactive Lenten learning station for both kids & adults.

Lent is the season when we prepare for Easter. This lesson series helps us prepare for the Mystery of Easter. We move toward the Mystery by hearing the stories of Christ’s journey toward the cross and resurrection.
