FREE Holy Week Stones
~ready for pick up April 3 & 10 at both worship services~
Holy Week Stones is a family devotional/activity kit for your family to use during Holy Week. It includes 8 devotions for you to use each day of Holy Week.
Each devotion also includes a painted stone activity for you to complete. After Easter, store your Holy Week Stones with your Easter decorations and use it every year!
Read your first devotion on Palm Sunday and read one each day that week (Sun-Sun). Each day, you'll read the devotion for the day, discuss, and then paint and set out the corresponding stone. You can display the stones on your dinner table, fireplace, or even outside on the front porch or by the mailbox. These stones serve as reminders of the last week of Jesus' life on earth. |
Can't Come to Church to Pick Up Your Kit?
No Problem! Print the devotions and find 8 stones in your yard or at a craft store.
Here is the order for the devotional readings:
• Palm Sunday: Triumphal Entry (paint a palm branch on one rock)
• Monday: The Last Supper (paint a cup and bread on one rock)
• Tuesday: Foot Washing (paint a bowl of water and/or towel on one rock)
• Wednesday: Garden of Gethsemane (paint a tree on one rock)
• Thursday: Jesus is Arrested (paint a coin on one rock)
• Good Friday: Jesus is Crucified (paint a cross on one rock)
• Saturday (paint a cloud and raindrops on one rock)
• Easter Sunday: The Resurrection (paint a lily on the last rock)
Tips for painting rocks:
Paint the rocks with white spray paint. Let dry (a hair dryer helps the paint dry quicker). Decorate using sharpie markers. If you want the natural color of the rock as the background, you can decorate rocks using paint pens and acrylic paint.
