What are Your Plans for the Holy Week? / myLot

As Christians, we observed the Lenten season and do some religious activities like prayer, fasting, repentance of sins, penance, etc. But today, many of us use this long vacation to relax and go somewhere else like in the beach or going abroad. Well, my family will just stay at home. Then we go to church together, attend the Station of the Cross and other activities related to the Lenten season. How about you?

I am Christian as well. My family always stays at home during the holy week. But since I have worked in a BPO company, I have always been working during these days. But, I make sure to go to church, do the station of the cross even go to 7 churches and pray. This year, I will still be working.

Hi @gaiza12 . That's great to know that you still do your obligation as Christian despite your call to your work during Holy Week.

Well, the family prefers to stay at home and be together. Catch up things. The family members are too busy with their own work.

Go out and see more people perhaps. i think work makes me less social. and this can be a chance for being social over a period of time.

I don't think "eternal" means 'for all time ... except hollidays.' I mean, I'll go visit my extended family as usual ... and I guess it'll be "Easter" or whatever pagan time-marker we put there ...

Visit my old parents, staying at home and reading the bible for reflection, join the station of the cross and hear mass.
