At the center of your group, place symbols of Holy Week, such as palm, a water pitcher and towel, a crucifix, and a cup of wine or grape juice.
LEADER: This holy week we accompany Jesus as he pours out his life for his friends.
ALL: Jesus, you pour out your love upon us.
LEADER: May the gospel we break open speak to us.
ALL: May we find a word to the weary that will rouse us.
