RESOURCES FOR HOLY WEEK AND PASCHA: This special web site will provide you with information, readings, hymns, articles, and much more on each day of Holy Week and on the Feast of Pascha. Use this resource as a guide for the services of the week and for readings and reflections on each day.
JOURNEY TO PASCHA BULLETIN INSERT NOW AVAILABLE: The Department of Internet Ministries has developed a printable booklet that explains each day of Holy Week. The booklet, which is entitled, Journey to Pascha: A Daily Guide Through Holy Week is available as a free download for parishes. The booklet is formatted to print on 11x17 paper and be folded in half; the pages are already ordered in "booklet friendly" format so all a parish needs to do is print and staple the pages. The content in the bulletin has been assembled from the Archdiocese's Great Lent, Holy Week & Pascha web site (http://lent.goarch.org) and can be used either as an insert to the parish's existing bulletin or as a stand alone handout for parishioners.
