Love the gum idea!! The children of Redeemer Lutheran Church in Winter Park, Florida will love this. Thank you again for a wonderful idea. Happy Easter Pastor John. He is risen! He is risen indeed!
Alleluia!
I liked the sharpie but for a slightly different idea. I like to color and the sharpie is my favorite marker. In some ways it is like God’s love…the colors are much more vibrant than other markers, the sharpie is permanent and nothing can erase it, and when you use them, they bleed through and spread to the other pages. God’s love is more vibrant and alive than any other love we experience, nothing can take it away from us, and God’s love bleeds through us (through our lives) to those around us.
Yes! I have used the permanent nature of the sharpie in pervious DSCS. I like the bleeding through as in sharing God’s love!!
