I have been looking for ways to encourage sustained celebration for the full 50 days of Easter! You may have seen my 50 DIY Kinder Surprise Eggs.
Although I have made a couple Jesus crafts like our Wooden Painted Saint series and our TY Doll Makeovers, I decided that I needed an Egg Carton Jesus to round out my growing collection of Egg Carton Saints!
The Crown of Thorns dough wreath with toothpicks is a countdown craft for Lent. It’s also a Lenten activity in my book A Treasure Chest of Traditions for Catholic Families.
The toothpicks are inserted as a way to count sacrifice and count down to Easter.
While our Seder Supper Free Printable has been very popular, it has sparked some controversy about whether or not Catholics should celebrate the Seder Supper.
I found this article (Salt & Light) helpful…along with this article that it borrows from, written by Joe Paprocki.
I know it will be wonderful! I will have to be content with experiencing it vicariously through Mike and Sue Denz and St Gemma’s Catholic Pilgrimages and the news coverage on TV and online. I will however be experiencing an awesome pilgrimage to Rome September 22-October 3, 2014 and I’m already SO excited!
Here are a couple reminders of some of our activities for Holy Week
Palm Sunday…and every day of Holy Week: Egg Carton Passion Play

I’m sure I’ll be posting more detail about the over 15 ways to use this kit…but for now I’ll give you 7 Quick Peeks!
Are you looking for new ways to teach Catechism?
This craft has 12 templates of Catechism Categories to make your custom quizzing cube.
Choose from Virtues, Gifts of the Holy Spirit, Charisms of the Holy Spirit, Fruits of the Holy Spirit, Commandments, Sacraments, Mysteries of the Rosary, Mysteries of Faith, Nicene Creed (New Roman Missal), Stations of the Cross, Spiritual and Corporal Works and Precepts of the Church.
As recently as yesterday, I was considering replacing my blog with scrolls sent out by couriers on horseback: a little more expensive, but hardly any plugin or hosting problems.
