Episode 197: Holy Week with Young Children

For adults, Holy Week is a time of powerful liturgies, deep prayer, and the profoundly moving recollection of Our Savior’s passion. Our challenge can be to share this sacred time with the little ones in our families. Today’s guest, homeschooling mom, Alex Resch, will share her family’s strategies for Holy Week with Young Children.
