The Covenant: Christ's Death & Resurrection Week 1

This week we start a new unit on Christ's Death & Resurrection.  These next five weeks will lead us right up to the Wednesday before Good Friday and Easter Sunday.  This first blog post has several ideas that could help your family prepare for celebrating the Good News that Jesus is Risen!  Several of the ideas take time to prepare, purchase, or complete.  Therefore, I wanted to give you these ideas up front if they were of interest to you.  Enjoy teaching your children at home!
