Wrap Holy Week in Faith

How will this Easter be more faith-filled for you and your family? According to a Barna Study, two out of three Americans recognize Easter as a religious holiday, and less than half, 42 percent, connect Easter with the resurrection of Christ.

Holy Week provides time to walk children through the death and resurrection of Christ. Use the Word of God to lay the framework for the week. Read Luke 19:28-38 before attending the Palm Sunday service. On Good Friday, read Mark 14:22-26 to prepare for Communion. John, chapters 18-20:18, tell of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Make a point this year of making Easter all about the Savior by using the Bible as a teaching tool.

1 Corinthians 13 Parenting has a Passion Week activity booklet for families to wrap faith into the week. Download this free resource, No Greater Gift: A Family Guide for Celebrating Passion Week and the Resurrection. Focus on Easter as a true holy-day rather than just a another holiday.

Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
Romans 10:13 & Acts 2:21
