Example
On Good Friday the Faith First families are invited to attend the Stations of the Cross. You can do this special activity before attending:
Before attending the Stations of the Cross on Good Friday, we are inviting if you would like to create a prayer chain. On separate strips of paper please write your name , prayer intentions, & sins that weigh you down. On Good Friday, place the chain next to a crucifix at home as way to remember that Jesus loves you so much that he die for our sins.
When you are finished making one send us a picture
