Experience Easter Experience Easter brings together local churches, schools, and communities to share the story of Holy Week and Easter with resources available to help young people engage.
The experience starts indoor with the Hopes & Dreams of Palm Sunday and then goes through the washing of the feet, the Last Supper, The Garden of Gethsemane, the Cross and Easter Morning.
Participants then move outside starting with Jesus’ arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane and joining Peter in the courtyard, before experiencing the cross and the empty tomb.
Last year the Halas team worked with local schools at St Kenelm’s Church. Helen Laird, Calling Young Disciples Mission Enabler, said “Feedback from the schools was very positive with one teacher commenting: That has made me all goose-bumpy after reading about how alone Jesus felt whilst praying in the garden.”
