Each week, journey with your family through reflection-based activities that center on a Lenten theme. Then, bring these central aspects of our faith to life with creative activities that engage young and old:
The Easter Tree craft activity grows and blooms as Easter approaches, filled with flowers and leaves created as part of your Lenten observance.
Sunday Love Letters share the love of Christ with family members.
