Holy Week is upon us. We mourn not being able to spend these sacred days in our churches or with our faith communities. But we can still keep these days holy in our homes with loved ones with these Holy Week Prayer Resources.Observe Holy Week in Your Home:
• Palm Sunday — Read the Gospel of the Passion narrative aloud with your family, assigning different parts for each person to read.
• Holy Thursday — Tune in to a live-streamed Adoration or set up an intentional space in your home—maybe with a cross or other religious items—to spend time with our Lord. Re-enact Jesus’ washing of the Apostles’ feet with your family.
• Good Friday — Spend time in prayer and silence. Pray the rosary or Stations of the Cross using our video series together as a family.
• Holy Saturday — Traditionally a day of waiting, reflect on your waiting in uncertainty during this pandemic, as Jesus’ family and friends waited in uncertainty and fear before the Resurrection.
May we use our time and space intentionally this week as we remember our Lord’s Passion, Death and Resurrection. We hope our Holy Week digital resources help you to pray and remain spiritually grounded throughout this sacred week.
Prayerfully,
