A Family Lenten Journey
with Benjamin's Box
A video series, which hopes to support families in telling the Easter story to their children, will be offered during Lent into the Triduum. Each video will be between 15-30 minutes and contain a short reading from the story Benjamin’s Box, a Scripture reading, a craft, a challenge, and a prayer.
By the end of the series, children with their families will have heard the Easter story and collected items symbolizing key moments of Jesus’ experience during his last days:
-
His triumphant entry into Jerusalem on a donkey
-
The last supper
-
Jesus’ prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane
-
Jesus’ torture and crucifixion
-
The Resurrection on Easter morning.
