As the craft designer for Pax Domini, I appreciate these comments. (I do a google on our stuff periodically to see what pops up). You should check out our “latest model” for “The Remissin of Sins.”

BTW, to the critic of my recreation idea… Did you ever think that the “Pax Domini” (peace of the Lord) is spoken while the “blood of the Lamb” is presented to the people, during the singing of the Agnus Dei? In the Reagan days, it was peace through strength. In the Church, it’s peace through blood.

Thanks for all your encouraging comments!

I just took a look at the scroll. Dan, (the cute craft hater), would be really proud of that. Emily would want a different color scheme.

Overall, I give it 4.5 out of 5 stars. I think my kids would approve, too.

Keep up the good work, Devona!

Lutherans thrive when the stakes are high.

So you have to be Lutheran to take God’s judgment and turn it into a game of tag?

That’s why you’re not a Lutheran.

I think the consensus on this end is that “Angel of Death Tag” is pretty creepy.

Is the object of the game to pass over the Kids who have blood splattered on them already?

Yes. Only it’s a collection of red lamb necklaces that the kids find in order to be safe from the Angel of Death.

Angel of Death tag! Doesn’t “pax” mean “peace”? Is the object of the game to pass over the Kids who have blood splattered on them already?

Antagonistically,

I have gone over and over the craft directions. I am really beginning to love the scroll! The Lamb of god is on Matza Bread! That is the coolest thing in the whole world!!!!!!

Every Lutheran Church should do pax domini’s VBSs. They have a game in the recreation section that has a child playing the “Angel of Death.” It’s called Passover Tag.

The scroll is way better. They won’t go through their junk drawers in a year or two and wonder where they got it and why someone gave them something so cheap. The scroll, they’ll be proud to be able to explain.

A neighbor hosted a vbs type thing when I was probably about 6 or 7 and we made felt wall hangings with John 3:16 written on it in silver glitter. After seven moves, dragging my junk clear across the country three different times, I still have it. I didn’t hold on to any of the cheap plastic stuff.

Mutti, I love the wall hanging idea! Very cool!
