God promised Abraham that even though he was too old to have children, He would nevertheless give him a son in his old age. Isaac was the miraculous fulfillment of that promise and become Abraham's cherished heir. God later tested Abraham's devotion by asking Abraham to sacrifice Isaac as a burnt offering, but stopped Abraham at the last moment -- when it became clear that Abraham loved God even more…
When working with children and even adults, educators can find it hard to explain how the unseen God of Christianity is present everywhere, hearing our prayers whenever and wherever we pray.

Mummification was a very expensive process, so it was reserved for only the wealthy and powerful in Egyptian society, most notably the Pharoahs. The entire process from death to burial would take around 70 days.
