Day of the Dead (Mexico)
We talked about the Day of the Dead (Día de Muertos) a Mexican Celebration of all the souls that died. We set up an “altar” with a statue of Mary, flowers, and pictures of loved ones that have passed. We did the prayer service below and each student remembered someone from his or her family that has died.
Handout for Halloween, All Saints and All Souls Days:
Joseph’s Life
We will finish up watching the movie of Joseph’s life. Joseph was betrayed by his brothers and Potiphar’s wife. He is left in prison thinking– what kind of just God do I have? But God had a plan, he would save his brothers and father by bringing them to Egypt. How can this happen??? Genesis chapters: 37, 39-50.
