What is Holy Week?

Watch this video to learn more about the importance of Holy Week to our Catholic faith.

Palm Sunday

Learn more about what is known as the Triumphal Entry. The video explains more about the day Jesus entered Jerusalem. We celebrate this day as Palm Sunday.

Making Palms

Use this link to a website to assist you in creating your own "palm branch". If you don't have green construction paper, be creative: use regular paper and color your palms! Don't have Popsicle sticks? Use a straw or chopstick!

You can choose to decorate your home with palms, too! Leave messages or pictures of love and hope for mom, dad, brother, sister, grandparent or someone else in your home.

Family Walk

Just as Jesus and His disciples journeyed to Jerusalem, take a family journey outside! Get some fresh air during a cool, evening walk as a family and discuss what you learned in today's videos - either from Fr. Noe or about Palm Sunday.

Have some chalk at home? Take some with you and leave inspirational messages of love and hope as you go! Already created your palms? Take them with you on your own family procession in the neighborhood!

Reflection Time

Imagine seeing Jesus ride into Jerusalem. If you were a child in the crowd, how would you have shown your joy when you saw Jesus?
