What is Holy Week?
For some branches of
Christianity, Holy Week (which is also known as
Easter Week) is a very sacred week in the church
year. It happens during the last week of Lent
each year, meaning that the dates of Easter
Week change every year. This makes Holy Week,
and all the days within it, a “moveable feast”
that is observed by Christians all over the world.
For many Christians, Holy Week is a special
week during which they can reflect on Lent and
their faith before celebrating Easter. They can
think about the sacrifices that they believe Jesus
Christ made for humans in the lead up to
celebrating Jesus’ resurrection.

What is Holy Week?

During Holy Week, Christians remember the

events that led up to Jesus’ death. There are five
special days during the week which are
remembered in Christian and Catholic Easter week
services. Many people attend these to worship.

Group 02
Palm Sunday
Palm Sunday is
the day when Christians commemorate
Jesus going into Jerusalem on a donkey for
the celebration of Passover. In the Bible,
there were many people waiting for him
to arrive, who spread out their cloaks in
his path. Christian churches often
celebrate Palm Sunday with a blessing
and procession with palm leaves. Keep
reading to find out why Palm Sunday is
important!
 Group 03
Maundy Thursday
Maundy Thursday
marks the Last Supper,
where Jesus ate with his disciples. It also
commemorates a lesson Jesus taught that we should
be humble and ready to wash each other’s feet as a
sign that we are all equal. Some churches celebrate
with a foot-washing ceremony. On Maundy
Thursday, the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church
washes the feet of 12 people to re-enact Jesus washing
his disciples’ feet at the Last Supper.

Group 04
Holy Saturday
According to the Bible,
Good Friday is the day on which Jesus was put to
death on the cross. Christians believe that he
sacrificed his own life so that everyone could be
forgiven for their sins. Some Christian or Catholic
Easter week services are held on Good Friday,
although some people mark the day by fasting. It is
a day of sorrow, so church bells traditionally don’t
ring and altars are left undecorated.

Group 05
Holy Saturday This is the day on
which Lent traditionally ends. It marks the
final day of Jesus’ death, which he spent
resting in his tomb.

Group 06
Easter Sunday
You might be
familiar with Easter as a day of chocolate eggs,
lambs and bunnies which celebrate the coming
of spring. These are folk traditions, but the day
also celebrates the resurrection of Jesus.
According to the Bible, it marks the third day
after Jesus was crucified when he rose from the
dead.
