40/40 – Lenten Activities: NOW Crosses

by Joe on March 9, 2009

Today’s Lenten activity – #15 – is an opportunity for catechists to remind young people of the message we heard on Ash Wednesday: “NOW is the acceptable time!”

NOW CROSSES

  • This activity can be found at CatholicCulture.org
  • It is an opportunity to echo the message we heard just a week and a half ago on Ash Wednesday:  “Behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation!” (2Cor 5:20-6:2)

This looks like activity 15… unless you want to make an extra activity/create more work for yourself.

But as always, I enjoy your resources greatly! Thank you for being so generous.

We make crosses from small and large size craft sticks, tying them together with purple yarn or ribbon. This can be easily adapted to add the word “Now”. Thanks for the idea.
