“You say that I am a king.”

Something to Think About

Are there any kings and queens living in the world today? Where do they live? What do they do?

Can you name a fairy tale about a king or queen? Describe the king or queen.

The Story

Today’s gospel shows us what sort of a king Jesus is, although his kingdom is not of this world. As Jesus talks with Pontius Pilate, he shows himself to be peaceful, fair and honest. Jesus tells Pilate that he came into this world to tell people about the truth of God’s kingdom.

Reflecting on the Gospel

Talk together about what the 'kingdom' of Jesus could or should look like today. Will it be a place of peace and harmony? Will there be poor, hungry and homeless people? Will each person have someone to love them?

Group Activity

JESUS IS THE KING

You will need: a paper plate for each child (flimsy paper plates work best), coloured markers, scissors. Optional: decorative beads, mini pom-poms or coloured buttons, craft glue.

  1. Fold the paper plate and divide each half into four triangles like a pizza. (see image)
  2. Cut along the lines with the plate folded. Unfold the plate to make the final two cuts.
  3. Children decorate the paper plate with markers and other decorative items. You may wish to glue a pom-pom or button at the tip of each triangular piece.
  4. Fold the triangles up into place.
  5. Children can wear the crowns on their heads as they sing “Jesus is the King” one more time!
