- Use the passion gospel in this issue to create your own Holy Week prayer service. Read sections in different places. Prepare symbols for at least some sections; for example, break and share bread (after MEAL section); make small crosses from twigs tied with yarn to give your group for taking home (passion); give everyone flowers (Easter).
- Celebrate your own contemporary stations of the cross by visiting places where people in your community are suffering; for example, a rest home, a battered women’s shelter, a homeless shelter for families, a hospital, a burnt-out house.
- Keep a diary of how your parish celebrates Holy Week. Attend the service for each day. Write about your experience of special parts of each liturgy you attend.
