Materials
Obtain a ball of string or yarn and a cross of image of Jesus.
Activity
Sit the group on the floor in a circle. Holding firmly to the string, toss it to a person in the circle. The person then, holding firmly onto the string, tosses the ball on to another person. The string should be held above the ground. Continue until everyone has received the string at least once. You will have a spiderweb of string representing how we are all connected to each other. Then attach the end of the string to a cross or to a picture of Jesus.
Application
Scripture tells us that like this string, Jesus connects us all together. He is the head of the body and we are all connected though him. Colossians 1:15-20
This activity illustrates the connection between all believers with one another and with Christ.
