Holy Week Passports and Easter Egg Hunt
During Holy Week, kids are invited to use their Holy Week Passport to journey through Holy Week, remembering the events of Jesus' passion and resurrection.
Passports were handed out at all our Preschool and Elementary Faith Formation sessions prior to Holy Week and extras can be found at the sticker station during the liturgies. For each liturgy that you come to between Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday, you can find a sticker in the back of church to put in your passport, and you can fill out the questions to get you thinking about the special things we do during Holy Week. On the Sunday after Easter (April 8), we will have an Easter Egg Hunt outside of St. Francis Hall after the 10:30 Mass (weather permitting - otherwise, it will be held inside). Anyone who participated in the Holy Week Passport can bring their passport and go through "customs" to be able to go hunt for eggs! Cookies and juice will be provided for all families who attend.
