April: Easter

This month, our focus is on the heart of Christianity: Jesus' resurrection. Delve into the celebration of Easter, from the meaning and practice of the Triduum, to the 50 days of partying until Pentecost. Explore how ends can be beginnings, and learn about the physical rituals associated with sacraments of initiation. These activities shed new light for your students on some of the most essential facets of our Catholic experience.
