                              The Candy Cane   

                                                                        (for our children)

             It had to be special to be a gift for the King of Kings,

                thought the humble candy maker from Indiana. 

                        Not just any piece of candy would do.

          It had to be hard candy because the church is built on

            solid rock and God's promises are a firm foundation.

     It would be formed in the shape of the Good Shepherd's staff.

       A "J" that would also stand for the precious name of Jesus.

                                     But it had to say more. 

           White stripes would symbolize the virgin birth and 

                                    sinless nature of Christ. 

         Three small red stripes would represent the scourging  

                     Jesus suffered on His way to the cross.  

    On large red stripe would remind those with eyes to see and  

    ears to hear of the blood Jesus shed as payment for our sins.

               It would be a gift of love that would tell His story -                            

                                The Greatest Story ever told.

    Let It Shine !!!!!!!!
