5th Grade Easter Celebration

What can wash away my sin? Nothing but the blood of Jesus; What can make me whole again? Nothing but the blood of Jesus. -Ro­bert Low­ry

In celebration of Easter and the resurrection of our Savior, 5th grade students reflected on what Christ might have experienced before his crucifixion. As students carried a large wooden cross to the west field, Pastor Halleran shared thoughts about Christ's suffering prior to the crucifixion. Students ended the experience by nailing their own personal sins to the cross. This was a special time for the students and their Savior.
