Keeping the Triduum at HomeJoe Paprocki Lent

This year, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and the cancelling of church services, families have the opportunity to observe the Triduum—the three days of Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday—at home. Here are some ideas:

Holy ThursdayOn this day, we recall the institution of the Eucharist at the Last Supper, Jesus washing the feet of his disciples, and the agony in the garden.

To recall the institution of the Eucharist, the Bread of Life, consider baking a loaf of bread as a family. It can be a favorite recipe, or you can make unleavened bread. As part of the experience, have a family member read aloud Exodus 12 about the first Passover meal.

Read aloud John 13 that tells the story of Jesus washing the feet of his Apostles, and then consider inviting family members to wash one another’s feet. Talk about how washing feet is a symbol of service and how family members can serve one another each day.

Work together as a family to create a diorama depicting Jesus’ agony in the garden of Gethsemane. Read aloud Matthew 26:36–46 about Jesus in the garden.

Make Triduum tryptics  as a family.

Good FridayOn this day, we recall Jesus’ suffering and Death and venerate the Cross.

Invite the family to turn off all devices between noon and 3 p.m., to recall the time that Jesus suffered on the Cross. Use the time to bake hot cross buns or, if the weather permits, to go outside and plant seeds, explaining how a seed must “die” if it is to give life.

Make sure all children know how to pray the Sign of the Cross, and teach it to those who have yet to learn this prayer.

If your home does not have a crucifix, arrange to purchase one ahead of time, and then bless it and display it in a prominent place in the home.

Pray the Way of the Cross as a family, using the online or printable versions from Loyola Press.

Help your children get to know the story of Jesus’ Passion by adapting the classroom activity, “Looking for Clues,” for your family.

Holy SaturdayOn this day, we hold vigil and, in the evening, we welcome the light (fire) that dispels the darkness and proclaim “Alleluia!” and “Glory to God!” for the first time in 40 days to begin the celebration of the Resurrection. We celebrate new life in Baptism and renew our baptismal promises.

Make a Paschal (Easter) candle  as a family. If weather and local fire ordinances allow, light a fire in your backyard in a fire pit (under

adult supervision) and, as a family, sit silently around the fire. Pull out pictures, videos, and mementos of your children’s Baptisms, and tell stories and

share memories of the events. As a family, renew your baptismal promises. Color Resurrection eggs, and explain how the egg is a symbol of the Resurrection

(life emerging from the tomb). Decorate the eggs with religious symbols.

What other activities can families do together to mark the Triduum?

Manteniendo el triduo en casaJoe Paprocki Prestado

Este año, en medio de la pandemia de COVID-19 y la cancelación de los servicios de la iglesia, las familias tienen la oportunidad de observar el Triduo (los tres días del Jueves Santo, Viernes Santo y Sábado Santo) en casa. Aquí hay algunas ideas:

Jueves SantoEn este día, recordamos la institución de la Eucaristía en la Última Cena, Jesús lavando los pies de sus discípulos y la agonía en el jardín.

Para recordar la institución de la Eucaristía, el Pan de Vida, considere hornear una barra de pan en familia. Puede ser una receta favorita, o  puedes hacer pan sin levadura . Como parte de la experiencia, haga que un miembro de la familia lea en voz alta Éxodo 12 sobre la primera comida de la Pascua.

Lea en voz alta Juan 13 que cuenta la historia de Jesús lavando los pies de sus apóstoles, y luego considere invitar a los miembros de la familia a lavarse los pies unos a otros . Hable acerca de cómo lavarse los pies es un símbolo de servicio y cómo los miembros de la familia pueden servirse unos a otros cada día.

Trabajen juntos como una familia para crear un diorama que represente la agonía de Jesús en el jardín de Getsemaní . Lea en voz alta Mateo 26: 36–46 sobre Jesús en el jardín.

Haz trípticos trípticos  como familia.

Viernes SantoEn este día, recordamos el sufrimiento y la muerte de Jesús y veneramos la cruz.

Invite a la familia a apagar todos los dispositivos entre el mediodía y las 3 de la tarde, para recordar el tiempo que Jesús sufrió en la Cruz. Aproveche el tiempo para hornear bollos cruzados calientes o, si el clima lo permite, para salir y plantar semillas, explicando cómo una semilla debe "morir" para dar vida.

Asegúrese de que todos los niños sepan cómo rezar la Señal de la Cruz y enséñela a aquellos que aún no han aprendido esta oración.

Si su casa no tiene un crucifijo, haga los arreglos para comprar uno con anticipación, y luego bendígalo y cuélguelo en un lugar destacado de la casa.

Ore el Camino de la Cruz en familia, usando las versiones en   línea  o imp rimibles de Loyola Press  .

Ayude a sus hijos a conocer la historia de la Pasión de Jesús adaptando la actividad del  aula, "Buscando pistas",  para su familia.

Sábado SantoEn este día, tenemos vigilia y, en la noche, damos la bienvenida a la luz (fuego) que disipa la oscuridad y proclamamos "¡Aleluya!" y "¡Gloria a Dios!" Por primera vez en 40 días para comenzar la celebración de la Resurrección. Celebramos una nueva vida en el bautismo y renovamos nuestras promesas bautismales.

Haga una vela pascual (Pascua)   en familia. Si el clima y las ordenanzas locales contra incendios lo permiten, encienda un fuego en

su patio trasero en una fogata (bajo supervisión de un adulto) y, como familia, siéntense en silencio alrededor del fuego.

Saque fotos, videos y recuerdos de los bautismos de sus hijos, y cuente historias y comparta recuerdos de los eventos. Como familia, renueven sus promesas bautismales .

Colorea los huevos de la Resurrección y explica cómo el huevo es un símbolo de la Resurrección (vida que emerge de la tumba). Decora los huevos con símbolos religiosos.

¿Qué otras actividades pueden hacer las familias juntas para marcar el Triduo?

historia de la Pasión. Luego, invite a voluntarios a leer en voz alta la Pasión según Marcos 14: 1—15: 47. Dígales a los jóvenes que griten "¡Alto!" cada vez que se menciona una de sus pistas

en la historia de Passion. A medida que se revele cada pista, haga que se acerquen y la peguen / peguen en un

póster o en un tablero de anuncios.

12 Plastic Eggs Scissors Tape or Glue Crayons (if you print the black and white one) Peel and Stick Gems- Optional

You may have seen the original Resurrection Eggs and they use real items inside the eggs. Those are fun to do too. But this is just an easier way. You will need to make one yourself to have on hand to demonstrate and tell the story first and then have the kids do their own. This is just a basic story that leads up to the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Sit the kids down in a circle. Begin to read to the kids the list 1-12 and open each egg one at a time while you are going through the list. Show the the children the little picture of what was in the egg and explain a short simplified story behind each one. Each egg has a different story. Palm Branch-  this is for the triumphal entry. The palm leaves were thrown down when they saw Jesus coming. Matthew 21:8Bread- this is for the last supper when Jesus broke bread with the disciples. Matthew 26:26

Praying Hands- this is for Jesus praying in the garden of Gethsemane.  Mark 14:32Coins- this is for Judas betraying Jesus for 30 pieces of silver.  Matthew 26:14-15Rope- this is for the rope that Jesus was bound with by soldiers  Matthew 27:2Feather- this is for Peter denying Jesus three times and the rooster crowed like Jesus said it would. Matthew 26:34Thorns- this is for the crown of thorns that was placed on Jesus head.  John 19:2 Purple Robe- this is for Jesus robe that was taken away.  Matthew 27:28Cross- this is for the cross that Jesus died on for our sins. John 19:17-18Tomb- this is for Jesus being placed in a tomb and rose on the third day.  Matthew 28:5-6Fish- this is for Jesus eating fish with the disciples.  Luke 24:41-33Clouds-this is for Jesus going up to Heaven. Act 1:11

Once your are done with the demonstration have the kids go to their seats and hand out the printed sheet of resurrection eggs.Have the kids color and cut each egg out from the template that I made with the scripture included in it. If you printed the colored one then you don't have to worry about crayons. Give each child 12 plastic eggs to put the paper eggs in. Have the kids put the eggs in order in the egg carton if they are using one. 

Tape or glue the 1-12 list to the inside at the top of egg carton. If you are using a brown lunch bag just tape or glue to outside of bag. If you are using a basket then just tape to the side of basket. 

Another option is that you could just let the kids color the page and take it home instead. Just talk about each one and what they represent.

I decided to go with White Lunch Bags as you can see from the pictures below.

Print the black and white template off that I made and have the kids color the eggs. Then have them cut it out. Make sure they don't cut off the scripture that goes with the egg. You or the kids can take a black sharpie marker and number plastic egg 1-12.

 Have the kids place the correct egg into the plastic egg.

The numbers should match up.
