This morning we are going to play a little game. I have three cups here and a marble. Keep your eyes on the marble. When I am done mixing up the cups, I will ask you to guess which cup the marble is hidden under. (Don’t tell the your going to put the marble under the cup just let the assume you will be putting it under.)
Place all three cups on a table upside down. Pretend you will be placing the marble under a cup. To do this, lift the cup up from the back, put your hand under the cup like you are placing the marble under it, but keep the marble in your hand.

She thought he might be the gardener and asked him if he might know where Jesus’ body might be. Then the man said her name and Mary realized it was Jesus! He was alive! Someone hadn’t stolen his body after all!
