Pretzels
– The Prayer Bread (top)
Years
ago, since Christians did not eat certain foods during the Lenten season (meat,
milk, and eggs), and most bread recipes used milk and eggs Christian bakers
had to find some other way to make this important diet staple.
The result was pretzels. Flour,
salt, and water combined to make the dough, which was rolled out, and the
shaped to resemble two arms in prayer.
The German name for the bread was “brezel,” which became “pretzel”
in English. These snacks of our day are still a reminder of Lent as a season
of deep and frequent prayer.

Gutter
Sundays (top)
Youth
group will enjoy eating ice cream Sundays out of ordinary house gutters.
You will need to purchase these gutters and have them cut to size.
(Approx. 3-4 ft. will suffice) The youth will need to share each gutter.
Fill
the cutters with ice cream.
Have available different ice cream toppings like hot fudge, nuts, and candy
sprinkles.
Tell the youth to dig in.
It
is possible that the older youth will find this activity gross, since they
are eating out of something just a bit strange and also because they are sharing
a gutter. From testing out this
activity, the younger campers loved it while the older campers found that
this was just a little bit too much for them.
Have some extra plates available for them and have your cameras ready
for some exciting pictures.
