X:Site March 2009 showed us that
God has something to say... through the cross.
As we looked at the story of how Jesus was crucified instead of the murderer Barabbas, we realised that everything that happened was part of God's plan. He wanted to bring us back into friendship with him again and Jesus dying on the cross was all part of the plan. We can now be forgiven because of Jesus' death and become friends with God.

We drew some of Barabbas' expressions as he slowly realised that he wasn't being executed...but that Jesus was going to take his place! |

We found the story about Barabbas in Mark 15: 6-15 |

Where is the fire? What fire? No; we are car park attendants.

We took a rough wooden cross and some paper to smooth it. As we sanded it down we thought about what Jesus had done in forgiving us. |

It was the girls' turn to be gunged but Tom wasn't going to shirk from his duty! |
