Egg 5... 

Now our story gets very sad, and not very nice … but read on.  It will be worth it in the end.
 
Crucifixion Egg 5
One of Jesus’ own friends betrayed him.
He told the leaders when Jesus would be in a quiet place with just a few friends, and they came with a big group of soldiers and they took him away. Amazingly, Jesus didn’t struggle or try to run away. He was frightened and sad, but somehow he knew that what was happening to him was all part of God's plan.

Lies were told about Jesus, and an excuse was made to put him to death. The Roman soldiers led him out of Jerusalem, along with two other men who were criminals. They carried heavy wooden crosses to the top of the hill.
 

If you want to … use the twig or stick you found and make a cross. Put it in the ground near this egg.
