As you are well aware, Lent and Holy Week will be here in the snap of our fingers. This time of year brings a time of reflection, but also a time of business for ministry leaders.

To help, Sparkhouse is offering a few different ways to get ready for Holy Week this year.

Weekly Lent devotions

Sometimes it can be tough to take a minute for ourselves during Lent, especially as Holy Week gets closer. However, take a few minutes each week to join Sparkhouse with weekly Lent devotions, created to help you take a moment of reflection – something that we often forget for ourselves as we focus on helping our communities do the same.

Holy Week reflections

Last year, we kicked off the Sparkhouse blog with a series of contributed reflections for Holy Week. Missed out? Read them here:

• The Palm/Passion Sunday affair
• Six tips for healthily navigating Holy Week
• A cupful for us too: 10 ways to find spiritual fulfillment during Holy Week
• How can you make Holy Week meaningful for your family?
• What Easter means to Sparkhouse employees
• Ideas to help you celebrate Eastertide

This year, we’ll be doing the same, so come back starting on Palm Sunday and each day after for a unique perspective from other ministry leaders.
