In the past, our congregation had an egg hunt for children on Easter Sunday morning following worship. While it was a fun, it was fast and seemed to miss any lasting reinforcement of the Easter story. Wanting more connection between family members, we provided an Easter storybook for each family to take as they left worship. This particular story also included a connection to the death of a pine tree and its seeds living on to benefit others. A paper implanted with pine tree seeds were included in a plastic egg attached to each book.
