young. They got up early Easter

homes of relatives. He said one of the
carols they sang was the one that had
just been sung.
Rev. Bannerman handed each of the
children a small package of jelly
beans. He asked the children to take
out the the first black jelly bean. Rev.
Bannerman explained the black bean
was for sins that Jesus died on the
cross for. then he told them to eat it.
They proceeded with the green one
which represented the Garden -of
Gethsemane, the orange: the evening
of the Last Supper, purple represented
that Jesus was sad and full of sorrow.
the second black one was the grave of
Jesus, the yellow was Easter morning
when Jesus rose from the grave, and
the red one was to remember Jesus
with Communion.
