Even More Great Ideas

Wednesday, April 8th, 2020

For many, the relationship with your congregation lives in your heart, and it’s never more true than this year as everyone is searching for ways to connect. The Easter and Passover celebrations are going to look quite different than in years past. Kudos to those who are thinking outside the box to create meaningful holidays:

  • Here’s something inspiring from the Cathedral of the Rockies in Boise, Idaho. Traditionally, church members come during Holy Week to walk the Stations of the Cross, an art exhibition made of works by local artists. This year, they have created a website so anyone across the country can do this walk virtually.
  • Jewish congregations are celebrating Passover (April 8-16), which commemorates the exodus of the Jews from slavery into Egypt. This holiday is normally celebrated with family gatherings and specific symbolic foods. But limited supplies and online shopping can create challenges.
