- Page 3 - The whole town was stirring.
Today was the big day. This was the day. This was the day that Savanah
Johnson and her 1st grade class at Oriole Beach Elementary
would put on the biggest Easter pageant that Gulf Breeze had
ever seen.
- Page 4 - Savanah was a little
nervous. She was playing the role of Peter. She knew the story
of Easter very well and she practiced her lines everyday. Today, all
of her work would pay off. Savanah took a deep breath and
walked into the spotlight, center stage.
"Hello, my name is Simon Peter," said Savanah,
"and this is the story of Easter." The audience cheered and the
curtains opened.

- page 7 - As the curtains came to a stop, Savanah's
friends, including Jessica, were busy playing the roles of
Peter's family who were fishermen working on the Sea of Galilee.
- Page 8 - Andrew, who was Peter's brother, ran
on stage and up to Savanah. "Peter," he said,
"come quickly! We have found the Messiah! I have spent all
day with a man who John the Baptist called Jesus 'Lamb of God.' I want
very much for you to meet him."

- Page 10- More picture illustrations
- Page 11 - Savanah was very
excited. The play was going perfectly.
Peter and his family were fishing one night with
no luck at all. Not one fish had been caught and they were very sad.
When Jesus came, He said to try again. They did and the net was full of
fish. Jesus told Peter to follow him, that he would "fish for people
from now on."
- Page 12 - Peter was describing some of the many
miracles he had witnessed Jesus perform. He told of the day Jesus
cursed a fig tree and it withered and died.
Then Peter told of the time they were on a
mountain and Jesus was shining even more brightly than the sun and God spoke to
him.

- Page 15 - "One day Jesus healed my mother-in-law.
She had a terrible fever and everyone was very worried. He even raised
a girl from the dead once."
- Page 16 - Savanah entered the stage for
her next big act. Savanah began, "Jesus' life was
amazing. He healed people, performed miracles and spoke the word of
God. But the most important and exciting days were those which we are
about to portray."

- Page 18 - More picture illustrations
- Page 19 - Savanah and Jessica
were very excited. They were having lots of fun and at the same time
they were learning how it could have felt to live around a man as great as
Jesus.
The play was a success and the audience loved them
all.
- Page 20 - Savanah took her place on stage with Jessica,
and the curtains opened. Jesus was sharing a Passover meal with his
twelve disciples and speaking of his death.
Savanah knew this meal is known as The
Lord's Supper, The Holy Communion and the Eucharist.
- Page 21 - Picture illustrations
- Page 22 - More picture illustrations
- Page 23 - Jesus washed the feet of each of the
disciples before sharing the bread and wine. (Savanah's class
didn't really use wine, just grape juice).
Jesus told of one of us betraying him. He
said Peter would deny Him three times before the rooster crowed.
- Page 24 - When Jesus was accused of crimes he
had never committed, Peter said he didn't know Jesus. As he said this
the third time, the rooster crowned and Peter realized what a failure he
was. He left in tears.
- Page 25 - Picture illustrations
- Page 26 - More picture illustrations
- Page 27 - "I can't believe how these
people are treating our Lord," said Savanah speaking her
lines. "It is bad enough that they mock him, but to hit him and
whip him... Why do they make him suffer?"
- Page 28 - Savanah was disappointed that
her teachers wouldn't allow them to use a cross for the final act.
They said it was too dangerous. "Jesus had to suffer on the
cross," she thought, "we should be able to set it up somehow, but
the show must go on."
- Page 29 - Picture illustrations
- Page 30 - More picture illustrations
- Page 31 - When Sunday arrived, Mary Magdalene
went to visit the tomb of Jesus. She couldn't believe her eyes.
The tomb was empty! Jesus had risen from the dead.
Savanah and Jessica felt a joy in
their hearts. Even though they had practiced the play and knew the story
of Easter, this was the first time they had actually felt the reason for Easter.
- Page 32 - As the play continued, Mary Magdelene
ran to tell Peter and John of the miracle. They rushed to the tomb and
rejoiced to find the clothes lying undisturbed but the body of Jesus
gone.
Then, as Peter, Savanah explained how Jesus
appeared to him and to others. He was alive!

- Page 35 - Dear Savanah Johnson, I hope
you have enjoyed reading "My Easter pageant," and learning what
the true meaning of Easter is.
With love from
Mommy and Daddy
