Holy Week Craft Printable

 

 We're making this little craft to tell my youngest what to expect this week.  The figure of Christ and the epitaphios are not glued on, so we can act out when they are moved. I just cut out the cross and bier from brown paper sacks and used tissue paper and glue and markers.

Here are some printables. I'll give the large epitaphios to my youngest to color during one of the Holy Friday services, but I printed it now so she could see it. Then we made a tiny one for the bier.

Saturday of Souls and Memorial Coloring Pages

I've made three printables appropriate for teaching children about Soul Saturdays of Lent or Memorial Services. Grab and save jpgs.

Lention Triodion Calendar

  I'm trying something new this year with a Triodion Calendar as I try to teach my older kids more about the weeks of preparation. You can still find the regular calendar here and a more fun one here.

We'll still make a Kyra Sarakosti, and you can find my funny joke about Kyra Meatfare here.

Scripture Bookmarks

 I made these printable bookmarks to slip in my dad's Father's Day card. He and I both read a lot and love scripture, so this felt like a fun thing to share. I chose some verses that I remember when I feel daily stress. File below. Print on cardstock and cut apart. Please enjoy!

New 12 Passion Gospels Printable

 We've been using the old Holy Thursday printable for 5 years! I thought I'd make a less-clip-arty one, so the kids can light the candles as they're read. Enjoy!
