  • Lent & Easter Season
    LENT/EASTER SEASON February 22, 2015 WHAT’S THIS? At its root, Lent is a name for Spring, and is a 40-day period of preparation for Easter Sunday and one of the major liturgical seasons of the Catholic Church. A penitential season marked by prayer, fasting and abstinence, and almsgiving, Lent begins on Ash Wednesday and ends on Holy Saturday. The color of Lent is purple; The six Sundays in Lent are not part of the Lenten fast, and thus we say there are 40 days of Lent – a biblical number – while there are really 46; The Stations of the Cross are a devotion imitating a pilgrimage with Jesus to commemorate 14 key events around the crucifixion; Because of the solemnity of Lent, the Gloria and Alleluia are not said or sung. March 1, 2015 WHAT’S THIS? During Lent the Church is called to embrace a spirit of repentance and metanoia (“a change of heart”) or conversion. There are many opportunities for prayer – communally or individually – such as: Daily Mass (communal) Stations of the Cross (communal and individual) The Rosary (communal and individual) Liturgy of the Hours (individual) Reconciliation (communal and individual) Adoration of the Eucharist in the Blessed Sacrament Chapel every Friday (individual) Free web Lent program offered by Dynamic Catholic—sign up at BestLentEver.com. March 8, 2015 WHAT’S THIS? The next four weeks of “What’s This” will be highlighting specific components that lead up through the Easter Vigil. Palm Sunday – March 29: The liturgical color of Palm Sunday is red. Red signifies Christ’s Passion; The Palm Sunday liturgy begins with an additional Gospel highlighting the jubilant entrance of Jesus into Jerusalem; The palms are ancient symbols of victory and hope, as well as new life; The Palm Sunday liturgy takes on a more somber tone with the second Gospel reading of Christ’s Passion; The blessed palms received this day should be discarded as other blessed articles.

  • Diwali FESTIVALS of LIGHT LEARNING ACTIVITIES CHRISTMAS and DIWALI
    Festivals of Light Diwali FESTIVALS OF LIGHT LEARNING ACTIVITIES CHRISTMAS AND DIWALI Teachers and leaders can adapt the following to suit their own needs. The methodology that worked best on the pilots was ‘circle time’. For more information about methodologies that build a positive learning environment please see the chapter on group work and facilitation in Lynagh N and M Potter, Joined Up (Belfast: NICIE, Corrymeela) 2005, pp 43 – 86. There is a hyperlink to this resource in the ‘Getting Started’ page in the Introduction. Teachers/leaders need to explore and be comfortable with their own identity before discussing identity with the class/group. It is important for us to accept others both for the ways in which we are different and also for the ways in which we are similar and to express our identity in ways that do not harden boundaries with others. You can find out more about sectarianism and approaches to difference in the trunk and branches sections of the downloadable ‘Moving Beyond Sectarianism’(young adults) at: www.tcd.ie/ise/projects/seed.php#mbspacks Why not think about becoming a Rights Respecting School? See www.unicef.org.uk/tz/teacher_support/rrs_award.asp for more details It is important that parents are aware of the issues in this unit. Write a letter to let them know what you will be covering and why. There are three festivals of light in this section – Diwali; Christmas and Hanukkah. They can be studied separately or comparatively. During the pilots they were studied comparatively – Christmas and Diwali and Christmas and Hanukkah over 6 sessions.
