This year holy week was a bit different for our family. The local public schools and state university took their Spring Break during holy week - so my husband was gone with a group of students on a Spring Break Mission Trip. Those of us still at home went on with school, as well as with the other special opportunities and services that Holy Week affords. The big kids sang and waved palm branches in the worship service on Palm Sunday. As a family we remembered the events of Holy Week through Scripture, stories, visual reminders, Lenten sacrifices (like no sweets or donating money for the Good Friday offering) and worship services. Resurrection Sunday was a great celebration as the kids woke up to find the breakfast table decorated with lilies and donuts... and Daddy HOME!
