My VBS Wilderness Adventure Snack Day 5

 

MY VBS Wilderness Snack titles 29

 

 

Theme: Explore the Sacraments of Matrimony and Holy Orders

Virtue: Hope (to expect something good will happen; a confident expectation of good things to come)

 

 

“STICKING TOGETHER” S’MORES

 

Theme Connection:

A marriage takes three people to be successful: a man, a woman, and God. With our Sticking Together S’mores, the graham crackers represent the man and the woman, the marshmallow crème represents God who sticks the married couple together, and the chocolate is their sweet love for each other. No one can keep a marriage together and make it sweeter than God can! 

 

You’ll Need: 

  • Graham crackers (2/child)
  • Chocolate frosting 
  • Marshmallow crème
  • Plastic knives and plates

Activity:

  1. Spread chocolate on one of your graham crackers. 
  2. Put marshmallow crème on the other cracker. 
  3. Stick them together and enjoy. 

The kids can make another one, if there’s “S’more!”left over.

FISHING ROD NIBBLES

Theme Connection:

Jesus calls us all to be Fishers of Men and bring souls to Christ. Think of the fishing rod as a way of casting for souls to bring to Jesus. Priests have a special mission of bringing people to Jesus through the sacraments. A married couple also has the special responsibility of bringing their children to Jesus.   

 

You’ll Need: 

  • Large, thick pretzel stick or breadstick (2/child)
  • Pull n’ Peel red licorice (2/child)
  • Gummy worms or Blue Whales (2/child)

Activity:

  1. Tie a gummy worm on the end of the licorice. 
  2. Wrap the other end of the licorice around the top of the pretzel stick. 
  3. Have fun eating your Fishing Rod Nibbles.
