Menu Plan: April 5 - 11 (Holy Week)
I wish you a blessed Holy Week! We couldn't go to church, of course, and had read a suggestion to put up branches and flowers in the window. Our windows can't be seen from the street, so we decided to decorate our gate. We hadn't taken these palm branches and crosses back to the church to be burned, so we used them today. This is going to be a strange Holy Week. We are so grateful for all the streamed church services, but it is hard to be missing them.
Our littles won't be attempting the full fast for the Triduum, of course, so there are some light meal options for them. Soon, they will all be old enough to fast completely!

Linking to Menu Plan Monday
Here are some resources for good, orthodox, liturgical worship services to participate in from home Saint Michael's, Our Lady Star of the Sea, Diocese of Cascadia Anglican Church, Orthodox Church of the Redeemer. If you don't have a church broadcast, perhaps this will help you worship and focus on the Lord and how you can serve His people during this time.
