Holy Week begins on Palm Sunday and includes the holy
days of Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday.
The story of Holy Week stretches from Jesus’ triumphal
entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, through the Last
Supper, and on to Jesus’ arrest, trial, sentence,
crucifixion, and burial.
“I am the vine, you are the branches…
This is my commandment,
that you love one another as I have loved you.”
--
John 15, verses 1 and 12
A Prayer for Holy Week
Dear
God,
Grant me the courage
not to run from fear,
but to walk in
love.
When I’m afraid,
help me to think creatively
and act for a
life worth living,
and a world worth living in.
Amen.
