Why do we celebrate?

 

During this unit we will:

  • Explore how Christians see Holy Week as the culmination of Jesus' earthly life, leading to his death and resurrection.
  • Learn about the various events of Holy Week, such as the Last Supper, finding out why they were important in showing the disciples what Jesus came to earth to do and that Christians today trust that.
  • Discuss how Christians believe Jesus really did rise from the dead, and so is still alive today.
  • Find out how Christians remember and celebrate Jesus’ last week, death and resurrection. 
  • Answer the big question:  Is celebration just about happiness?

 

Is celebration just about happiness?

 

What do you think? Are people always happy when they celebrate? Can you think of a time you celebrated that didn't make everyone happy?
