Resources for Holy Week Activities

This week, Meditations on the Crucifix is FREE on Amazon Kindle. You need not have a Kindle device. You can download the Kindle App for free for you phone or computer.

This short but powerful meditation on a common Catholic sacramental is sure to give you inspiration as you look upon the Cross on Good Friday.

Also available in paperback.

If your parish doesn’t offer a Tenebrae Service or if it’s not practical for your family to attend, you may try this simple version at home. Learn more about Tenebrae here and download the Free PDF guide with instructions and readings.

This is something that our children look forward to every year. It is a reading of the Passion narrative (abbreviated) and each food item has a symbolic reading associated with the reading. For example, Peter’s denial and the cock crowing – hard boiled egg, Judas’ 30 pieces of silver – Peppermint Patty, etc.

It’s an enjoyable way to read the Passion as a family, have a simple meal, and spend time together.
