The story of the candy cane

Have you ever heard the story of the candy cane, if not here is how it goes. Hold a candy cane and turn it in your hand, what letter does it remind you of? If you guessed a broken N your wrong. It should remind you of the letter J. J for Jesus, now turn it upside-down and now what does it remind you of? It should remind you of a Shepperd's staff. The red stripe on the candy cane represents jusus' blood when he died on the cross. He sacrificed himself so we could live with him again. The white stripe represents that when we get baptized our sins get washed away and our body is pure white and clean like when you were born. And that's the story of the candy cane.
