Easter Resources
Easter Season
Every year as Easter approaches, our family is always looking for new ways to be thinking and preparing to worship our Savior in a speacial way during the important days of Holy Week.
Here are some of the free resources we have used and look forward to using.
Resources
Holy Week Timeline from Bring it Home
Easter story is not limited to Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday. In the same way that the life of Jesus is important to the Gospel story, the events of the week leading to the death and resurrection of Jesus are important to the Easter story. You and your children will benefit from becoming familiar with the days that preceed Easter Sunday.
With this in mind, we created a Holy Week timeline for families to become more familiar with the events such as the Triumphal Entry, and Cleansing of the Temple and Teaching of Jesus throughout the week. The timeline also breaks down which stories are found in which Gospels; giving verse references.
It is best used as a referance resource to a Holy Week Devotional, the Holy Week Timeline will help you and your family see the passion of Christ in a new and full way! Get it Here for Free!
