Last Christmas our family
celebrated Advent, and for the whole month of December we spent time
daily focusing on the birth of Christ as the holiday approached. We
enjoyed the experience so much I have created a similar calendar of
activities and scriptures to use this month to help us celebrate
Easter.
This is based on a 28 day
calendar for Easter (four weeks leading up to the holiday). There are
four memory verses, one for each week. There are 28 daily scripture
readings that I would encourage you to read as a family, we do ours
at dinner. There are 16 spring themed mandalas (you will need to
repeat 12 of them) that you can color and use to decorate a Cross or
hang on an Easter tree, along with a full color page for Easter
Sunday.
I pray that this season
you would take time to ponder the question about what you believe
about Jesus, what His life means as part of our world history and
what His redemption can mean for your life both now and eternally.
