Game - Jesus on the cross: ‘The fight for forgiveness’


A lively game you can use in your Easter programme 

As Jesus is hanging on the cross he calls out ‘Father forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing’. Despite the terrible things they have done to him, Jesus prays that those who have crucified him will be forgiven.
This game illustrates what is involved as we also try to forgive people. 

This idea is part of a complete Sunday school lesson on the Easter Bible story in Luke 23:26-56. 

This game will help the children in your Sunday school lesson, youth ministry, Bible lesson, VBS, kidmin, children’s church or children’s ministry to reflect on this powerful Bible passage.
