Parents,
“No pain, no palm; no thorns, no throne; no gall, no glory; no cross, no crown.” -William Penn
The most important thing about Holy Week is to help keep your family focused on the true meaning of this season and remembering that this is the last week of Lent. Easter starts on Sunday, but to help hold off on Easter celebrating until the actual Easter season begins, you can try to get your family involved with these Holy Week resources for kids!
