Why do we have a week called “Holy Week”?
Why would we refer to a week as being holy?
The word “holy” means that it is from God.
That’s why we call the Bible “holy.” It isn’t
just any book. It is God’s living Word given to
us for our salvation! The same goes for Holy
Week. This is “God’s Week.” This is the week
in the Church Year when Jesus actually paid
for our sins and won our salvation!
Which days are in Holy Week?
There are particular days during Holy Week
that are extra special. During Holy Week we
celebrate Palm Sunday, when Jesus went to
Jerusalem and people celebrated His arrival;
Maundy Thursday, when Jesus instituted the
Lord’s Supper; Good Friday, when Jesus died
on the cross; and Holy Saturday, when we
await His resurrection on Easter Sunday!

Today one of the friends told a story of her Mom's birthday celebration and the class made journal entries.
Before we worked on our entries, we made sure that all of our questions were answered.
