Mary and the Jar of Oil Coded Words

This Mary and the Jar of Oil Coded Words activity can help children see the reality of Jesus’ death while also seeing our need to worship and love Him. You can learn more about the story of Mary Anointing Jesus’ Feet here.

Several series of numbers don’t mean much—unless you can crack the code! Cracking the code in this coded word puzzle is easy, and a lot of fun. This activity features words that remind us of elements in the story of Mary’s lavish expression of love for Jesus in John 12:1-7.
