Craft Activities for Children John 2 Jesus at the Wedding Feast
The first miracle Jesus did on Earth might surprise us a little, but it further revealed who Jesus was. Transforming water into wine might not seem entirely life-changing, but it reminds us that anything is possible with Christ, and that God cares about even the little details of our lives. These crafts celebrate the story and the power of Jesus. A “Changing Jars Display” recalls the miracle. A “Trophy Cup” serves as a decorative container or functional cup as well as a reminder of how Jesus triumphs at all things. Let’s get crafty!
