6th Religion Week of April 6-8


Hi disciples of Christ,

Yesterday, Palm Sunday began the beginning of Holy Week.  If we had been able to attend Mass, we would have begun the celebration of Mass with a procession carrying palm branches to recall the day Jesus rode into Jerusalem.  Please take the time to read a page a day and then do the activity found on the next page to celebrate Holy Week at your home.

Today, Monday read p. 355.  Reflect. Then do activity on p. 356.  (Palm Sunday)

Tomorrow, Tuesday read p. 357.   Reflect.  Then complete p. 358.  (Holy Thursday)

On Wednesday, read p. 359.  Reflect.  Then do activity p. 360.  (Good Friday)

On another day, read p. 361.  Reflect.  Answer My Faith Choice on p.361. (Easter)

On Sunday, pray with your family...Alleluia! Jesus Christ has risen! Alleluia, Alleluia! Amen.

On Easter, my Mother would say the following to me and my brothers, in Greek...“Christos anesti”....which means  “Christ is risen!” Then we would respond.... “Alithos anesti!” which means... “Yes, He is truly risen!”  Try saying “Christ is risen” in Greek and teach your family to respond “Yes, He is truly risen!”

We can practice saying it in Greek on Wednesday, when we meet again.

Stay well and love, Ms. O

Happy Easter!
