This Easter Egg Blessing Milestone Moment can
be used to celebrate and share the message of Christ’s resurrection with
family, friends, and neighbors. Historically, eggs have been associated with
new life, rebirth, and springtime. Decorating Easter eggs and hiding them for
an Easter egg hunt has been a fun tradition for many a family gathering. Having
an Easter egg hunt at one’s home or at a community park and blessing the eggs
is an effective way to share the joy of Christ’s resurrection.
This Milestone
Moment consists of two pages that are reproducible in your local setting. It
can be sent in emails or printed.
·
Page 1 describes the significance of the moment
and the importance of observing it.
· Page 2 provides a conversation guide* that
includes talking and listening to one another, reading a verse/s from the
Bible, and a prayer and blessing. It includes a food for thought question on
how one might show love for one’s neighbor through an act of service.

Traditions, and Service. These practices encourage us to grow in our faith
through personal, trusted relationships.
