Wednesday

The rich people gave lots of money. The poor woman gave two coins.
Whose gift was greater?

If you’re using a “Holy Week at Home” box, the story for today is Mark 12:41-44. (If you want instructions for making a Holy Week box, scroll back through these posts to Palm Sunday for downloadable instructions. You can watch Greg and Zan run around to find objects on last Friday’s post.)

People were making offerings in the temple. Rich people made generous gifts. A poor woman gave just two coins. Why do you think Jesus said the poor woman’s gift was greater?

While you think about this story, you can make rubbings of your coins.
