We will begin by praying the Stations of the Cross together. (If you want to pray at home, I would recommend the Formed videos at the bottom of this page.)

You’ll need this printout (original coloring sheet from The Catholic Kid; they have other coloring pages available here). You will also need a pen/pencil, crayons, and “meeples” (characters/markers for each person).

Are you smarter than your Director of Faith Formation?
Play Number 40, a scrabble-ish game of words and Lent. You’ll need 40 squares of paper (ours were 1” x 1”) and the slideshow below. Click the > button to advance through the slides. (Anna’s score is included at the end of each round.)
