HOLY WEEK PRAYERS

Holy Week is a time we focus on Jesus and his final journey on earth, leading to the cross of Calvary. Setting aside time to contemplate and intentionally pray through each day of Jesus’ last week can be a means to opening up to God’s love and transforming work in your life. 

We invite you to pick up a Holy Week Prayer Guide at Calvary on an upcoming Sunday or follow along online each day for a set of prayers, scriptures, and reflections to connect you more deeply to Jesus and the hope-filled good news found in him. May you find your hope strengthened as you draw near to him through this Holy Week.
