Jesus’ words in this passage about carrying your cross have to be up there with some of his most famous sayings. While the focus of this passage could be that Peter gets it wrong, it could also be about this famous instruction. This craft pictures just that, a walking Jesus dragging a cross behind him. It’s a simple craft and the only time-consuming part is backing it onto thicker card.

To make this craft, you will need the printout, some card, scissors, a stick (chopstick is ideal), a spit pin (brad), an awl (or something to poke a hole) some tape and some glue

Back onto thick card and cut the pieces out.

Where the small circles indicate, make holes for the split pin

Thread the split pin and open up on the reverse of the design

Add a stick to the main body of Jesus using tape.

gently roll Jesus to see his feet ‘walk’ as he carries the cross forward.
